Coco Pazzo or “Crazy Chef”? Well, really, both. Coco Pazzo is the name for one of Chicago’s most popular restaurants and is translated “Crazy Chef”. Voted the “Best of” for 2009, the cuisine is exquisite and fresh. With house made pasta every morning and Buffalo Mozzarella flown fresh from Italy every day, the next best thing would be staying in a villa above the restaurant. Under the ownership of Jack Weiss, and menu under the direction of Executive Chef Chris Macchia, Coco Pazzo will take you for a ride under the Tuscan sun. And, don’t forget Coco Pazzo Cafe located in the heart of the city just East of Michigan Ave on St. Clair and Ohio St.
We had the honor of shooting some images for their new website and worked with our lovely friends at MBF Creative Partnership to create a fresh look for Coco Pazzo. Don’t think we just took the photos, I personally tried every one of the dishes you see here, and I recommend them all.
Also, this is a new slideshow we are working with, let us know your thoughts.

Matt - Thanks for the comments Tyler. I did not use a Tilt Shift for any of these. We did all these in the restaurant, per the clients request, with one of my favorite lenses. Nikon 24-85mm f/2.8-4 w/macro.
Tyler - I love these shot they look so fresh and clean. Did you use a TS lens for any of them?
Judith - The work you did for Coco Pazzo and Coco Pazzo Café just takes my breath away. Please never stop shooting such sensitive beautiful images.
