Meet Chef Carlisle

For the love of food.

Ask culinary genius Carlisle Bannister what makes him happy, and he’ll likely deliver a mouthful so artfully prepared, you’ll understand the origin of passion. “Food is my life,” Carlisle is quick to share, “I’ve studied it since I was a child growing up in family restaurants, and now I never cook from a recipe. Recipes can give me ideas…but I love to create. To entice with inventive twists in preparation and presentation.” Best of all, Carlisle is the kind of chef you’ll find cooking for pleasure to serve his family and hosts of friends, because it’s an expression of his vocation. Never simply a client, a menu, or an event to plan, your call to Carlisle’s Culinary Connection starts a fire that feeds a banquet of captivating delights. From food to venue, music, décor and beyond, Carlisle’s team will cater to your every desire, freeing you to indulge, relax and enjoy. Bon Appetit!
