Our soup and sauce masters create dishes by hand and from scratch, every day. With fresh, whole ingredients like kale, peppers and squash. Because they know cooking that way – the Italian way- everything tastes better.
Hear our cooks first hand,
 and how they add pride and passion
 to everything they make. 
        To Carlos, "the soup master," his fellow
 cooks are like family. It takes an
 expert hand and a big heart to make
 our fresh soups by hand, everyday.
 See how he puts it all together. 
        Customers drive for miles to the Olive
 Garden in Racine, Wisconsin, to enjoy
 Don's soup. Maybe because they
 know the time and passion he puts in
 to preparing it the right way. And even
 if they don’t know it, they sure
 can taste it. 
        Shirley knows what makes a good alfredo
 sauce: simple ingredients, as fresh as they
 can be. It's how she makes this cheesy
 goodness fresh throughout the day,
 every day. She may be from Illinois, but
 you'll see she’s fluent in Italian cooking. 
        "Pasta" Pablo has been cooking up
 fresh recipes everyday, the Italian way
 for 15 years. All by hand, and with a lot
 of heart. See what we mean.
