History
The name Casa B is the combination of two words having personal significance: Casa, meaning home, the shelter where the warmth of a family is felt, the roots of a culture are shared and the traditions are passed on. B, comes from Chef Alberto's maternal grandfather's last name, Bobonis. Ernesto Bobonis believed in the unity of family and friends and in bringing everyone together through the irresistibility of his food, in the warmth of his home. From him, the palate was developed, recipes were learned and a passion for cooking was inherited. Therefore, in his honor, the name is carried.
