How Di Salvo's started in Parry Sound
Di Salvo's started in Parry Sound in April of 2019, and was founded as a small 28 seat fine dining restaurant named Bella Cucina. Bella was quickly known for high quality food and service with a beautiful atmosphere, then 2020 the Covid-19 pandemic changed the world and governments placed restrictions on businesses causing widespread shutdowns to try and control the virus. Customers were nowhere to be seen and the fine dining sector was probably hit the hardest, lets face it; fine dining is not just about the food but the entire experience which is elevated service and atmosphere; It's hard to deliver that in a take out container for $35.00 each per person, the perceived value would not be there. The tiny company "Carlo & Jane" would have to make some changes and really quick if they were going to survive. The plan was to create a handful of family style pastas that people could served to their families at home. The meal would come with enough pasta for 6 people, salad and homemade garlic focaccia bread. The town was notified by Facebook of the new idea, and it was a hit. After only a week the phone was ringing off the hook and it was difficult to keep up with the volume of customers, Carlo would make videos of the specials and food production and the response was fantastic.
The newly formed corporation was having an identity crisis, what would happen once the restrictions would lift? The fans of Bella Cucina expected fine dining to return and the new raving fans of Family Style Meals expected their meals to be continued, but their facility was way too small to handle any type of real volume. They tried to come up with ideas to facilitate their growth, they purchased a walk in cooler because they needed more storage, they purchased a food truck to serve as additional kitchen space to cook, they expanded into part of the dining room to add the pizza station, yet all the expansion with the tiny space they occupied wasn't enough. They soon realized that they outgrew the space they were in very quickly, the company kept both of their brands going with the space they had but needed to find a much larger location. The search began, and while looking at another property a prominent businessman Mike Reeves heard about their search and decided to call Carlo. "Hey Chef, I heard your looking for a place to buy? Why don't you come and take a look over here at my place, Wellington's" That evening Carlo and Jane met with Mike Reeves, and at Mike's table they made a deal and four weeks later the deal closed. This gave birth to Di Salvo's Hospitality Group.
The new location was a massive improvement, it had two separate dining rooms for both dining concepts, the kitchen was expanded to have two productions lines to feed both dining rooms. The building has a huge prep kitchen in the lower part of the building to facilitate the Catering division of the company and prep for the restaurant. It has its own parking lot for their food truck Curbside Cucina which serves at the waterfront and is contracted for private events. Di Salvo's Hospitality Group is a company that is always looking to grow, pivot, make moves for expansion and improvements. During the Pandemic many losses happened around the world, but it wasn't all bad stories, there are stories of success and Di Salvo's Hospitality Group is one of those stories. The goal is to become a company with many brands producing quality products under it's umbrella, we serve the fine dining sector, family dining, catering, and the food truck industry. Di Salvo's Hospitality Group is "Di Salvo's Bella Cucina", "Di Salvo's Family Style Meals", "Di Salvo's Curbside Cucina", "Classic Catering by Di Salvo's"," and their may be one more to add to the group in short time.
