EXECUTIVE CHEF
Michael Cappon
SOUS CHEF Dave Corradetti

Michael Cappon grew up in an Irish family in Syracuse, New York. As a child, he spent most of his family-time in the kitchen, as his mother was an excellent cook. All of the children in the family were involved with cooking from a young age. His parents always had a rule, you had to "try before you decide." Which caused Michael to have a willingness and an interest to try all foods.
The Cappon family vacations took them to the tropics and South America, and Michael was exposed to exotic foods at a young age. At 10, Michael was introduced to Philadelphia's own Chef Tell at the Grand Old House on Grand Cayman Island. Chef Tell gave the young Michael a tour and showed him the ropes of the kitchen. From that point on, Michael had a love for kitchens and for food.
"I started working in the restaurant business when I was 15 years old as a dishwasher," explains Chef Cappon. "I shortly moved up to line cook and fell in love with the food and the atmosphere of a kitchen from the start."
Cappon did most of his training at Justin's in Syracuse, NY under award-winning Chef Justin Wright. He started as a line cook at 21 and was promoted to head chef by the time he was just 23 years old.
In 2004 Cappon visited Philadelphia and immediately fell in love with the exploding restaurant scene in the city. He moved here in 2006 and landed at Stephen Starr's, El Vez as sous chef. Michael soon moved on to Marathon Grill as Director Of Culinary Operations. At Isabella in Conshohocken, Chef Cappon has recognized his dream of calling the shots in his own kitchen.
Michael his 30 years old and lives with his wife, Josette in the Fairmount area of the city.
