I have had the honor of working with some amazing chefs, great concepts, talented opening BOH teams. Nothing has come close to the individuals that have become a cohesive unit at Pa’la downtown. This place could not breath without the effort, accountability, selflessness, love and commitment this group has. Diverse in all levels and skill sets it’s a cliche’ to say it’s a group effort, but this is truly a BOH team that lives in the grind. We are missing the photogenic Dreyden (.veal) and Nate who is farming ()

Thank you ❤️
