Paul Christopher
Founder & Co-Owner- Christopher's Restaurant and Custom Catering
Chef Paul Christopher, founder of Christophers Restaurant and Custom Catering established in 1982, is a third-generation culinary entrepreneur deeply rooted in his community’s food scene. His family's legacy began with his grandparents, Anthony Spiotti, who opened the Four Corners Bar & Grill, setting the foundation for a lifelong tradition of hospitality. Paul's parents, Grace and Phil Christopher, took the reins and ran the beloved eatery from 50 Chestnut Plaza for 25 years before retiring in 1986. Carrying forward his family’s passion, Paul has served cooked-to-order lunches within a two-block radius of Four Corners for nearly four decades, earning a reputation for both quality and personal service. He has catered everything from elegant white glove galas and intimate weddings to lively backyard barbecues and large-scale corporate functions, adapting to each occasion with exceptional skill and care.
Paul’s lifelong dream has been to see his daughter, Dominique, continue the family’s tradition. In 2021, this dream became reality when Dominique officially joined as his partner, learning directly from Paul’s decades of restaurant and business expertise and ensuring the Christopher family’s culinary heritage flourishes into the next generation.
