Massachusetts raised, David Ferragamo, is a full-time chef + part-time farmer, with a vast knowledge of locally foraged wild ingredients. After attending culinary school, Le Cordon Bleu Boston, Ferragamo worked amongst many restaurants throughout New England. He was a main component on many kitchens at places such as Tuscan Kitchen, Stages at One Washington, + Toro to name a few. Whilst attending culinary school, David spent his early years cooking for Harvard students on his nights off from the brigade, twice a week for 4 years. Open kitchens weren't enough, he peaked his interest to become more connected with who was eating his food. While transitioning between restaurants and private events, David also cooked for the disabled. He helped people within their homes that had a very hard time managing their diet, such as perfectly dicing and cooking food to certain requirements for clients with Osteogenesis imperfecta (brittle bone disease) so they could still manage to have a quality of life within their homes.

For me, cooking is...

a lifestyle, passion, choice

I learned to cook at...

• Associates in culinary arts Le Cordon Bleu • 15+ years restaurant • 8+ years private chef

A cooking secret...

Homegrown Vegetable + Herbs. Being prepared for countless allergen substitutes.

Chef Ferragamo did a brilliant job with our anniversary dinner. Arriving promptly at our door with flowers was a lovely start to our evening! He was friendly professional and easy to be around. The food was fabulous! Tasted great and presented beautifully.

My adult sisters and I hired David Ferragamo to cook a meal for a surprise birthday for our mom. He put together a phenomenal menu with minimal back and forth and he easily accommodated a pescatarian and a gluten allergy. Good was amazing and David was a joy personally.
