Pablo Felix
Executive Chef
Southwest Florida boasts many chefs but very few have one like Cape Cabaret's Executive Chef, Pablo Felix.
To understand this, lets go back 40 years. A young eighteen year old Pablo found his calling at Windows on the World. This was a complex of venues on the top floors (106th and 107th) of the North Tower (Building One) of the original World Trade Center in Lower Manhattan. As a line cook he learned his trade and paid attention to the culinary chefs who worked there. At age 22 he was swiftly promoted from assistant chef to head chef at the Hilton Hotel in Secaucus New Jersey. Further developing his skills for a decade, he then ran a multi million dollar catering business in Georgia for Dennis Dean Catering. He met his wife Sandra, a chef in her own right. After a whirlwind courtship, they became the couple to know. With fourteen children combined from previous marriages, they are a modern Brady Bunch.
Entrepreneurs Joel and Carol Notes wooed and convinced Pablo to join Cape Cabaret. In a short time customers and performers were praising the gourmet food. Asked what his secret is, Pablo answered. "Every night I like to unwind in front of my piano and contemplate what elaborate specialty dishes I will create for the following evening. When I see the faces on my guests after eating my creations, it gives me great pleasure knowing I have made them happy and satisfied".
Pablo hope to meet all who come to Cape Cabaret and thank each and every one of you.
