ABOUT CHEF PETER
Born and raised in West New York, New Jersey, in the early ‘80s by his Cuban immigrant parents, Chef Peter Martinez watched his father and grandfather begin their journeys as cooks and learned he wanted to be a chef.
Fast forward twenty years, Chef Peter was first introduced to food as a Prepared Foods Supervisor for Whole Foods. He spent 10 years there learning and growing when he sadly had to step away from the kitchen to work in technology to help support his parents.
Chef Peter left the tech world, enrolled in The Institute of Culinary Education, and quickly caught the eye of professors for his talents. He graduated with top honors and his career took off working alongside some of the industry’s most renowned chefs—Gordon Ramsay, Aaron Sanchez, Andrew Zimmern, Daniel Boulud, Andrew Carmellini, David Burke, and Chris Santos to name a few.
Chef Peter took his talents to television where he participated in Food Network’s Cooks vs. Cons and was runner-up on Chopped. His most recent TV venture was on FOX’s Gordon Ramsay’s Hell’s Kitchen Season 19.
In 2020 when the world shut down, Chef Peter knew he needed to get creative and The Digital Food Truck was born. He designed seasonal menus with locally sourced ingredients for customers who sought catering that was top restaurant grade food in their homes. These days, Peter has expanded his business to cater to all types of events and customers’ needs.
ABOUT THE DFT
The Digital Food Truck is the brainchild of Chef Peter Martinez. When the world shut down during the pandemic in 2020, Chef Peter’s creative juices started flowing. He knew he needed to continue his passion for cooking and sharing his food with others, but how was he going to do it?
Chef Peter could not share his food with customers via a physical food truck at the time so he brainstormed on ways to take a food truck concept online and make it digital. That is how The Digital Food Truck was born.
The DFT quickly grew from a handful of small bites to a full blown operation as it stands today offering several ways to try Chef Peter’s delicious foods. The DFT offers catering for all types of events, personal chef experiences, and pre-designed party packages.
