Before arriving to Philadelphia, Peter Serpico served as the director of culinary operations at David Chang's Momofuku empire. He was the opening chef and partner of Momofuku Ko that opened to critical acclaim in 2008. For this, Peter received the James Beard award for Best New Restaurant, one of the most prestigious prizes, and was presented with the Rising Star Chef award by Food & Wine. Under Serpico’s leadership, Momofuku Ko received a three-star rating from The New York Times’ Frank Bruni, and two stars in the Michelin Guide.

In 2012 legendary restaurateur Stephen Starr lured Peter to Philadelphia to join in the opening of Serpico, an unassuming South Street restaurant receiving high praise for its imaginative and daring international dishes. The evening promises to be an epic collaboration as Chef Peter Serpico and Chef Marc Vetri join for the first time to create a multi-course tasting menu featuring the best of both styles. Limited to 18 guests, the night will commence by hosting a welcoming reception in Vetri Cucina’s demonstration kitchen before moving to the private dining room. Come prepared to engage the chefs and fellow diners in great conversation and leave having made new friendships over an elegant and fun-filled dinner. A wine pairing will be available for $100 per person.
