About

Chef Adolfo V. Veronese brings the rich culinary heritage of traditional and contemporary Italian, Mediterranean and California cuisine to his highly accomplished San Francisco and Las Vegas catering and consulting company, La Forchetta Catering.

Chef Veronese, who is of Sicilian and Padovan descent, grew up in San Francisco, and spent the majority of his summers in Italy. He is the son of a San Francisco master chef and restaurateur Adolfo Veronese and Angela Alioto, a lawyer and former President of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors. He is the grandson of former San Francisco Mayor Joseph L. Alioto. His claim to fame, however, lies in his talents as a chef who understands the elements of cuisine and the health-conscious appetite.

In August of 2007, Adolfo Antonio Veronese “Nino” was born. In 2009 Chef Veronese decided to raise his family in San Francisco, his birthplace. He and his family moved to Italy, Fregene (Roma) and Trevi (Umbria) for five months to study Italian modern cuisine, and returned home to San Francisco in September 2009. With the new Italian cuisine and the old traditional elements, Chef Veronese is now doing La Forchetta Catering Company full time in San Francisco Bay Area.
