Mr. Hoffmann has been a dedicated member of our community since 1986. He is known for his savory cooking. Formerly, he owned a food truck named Alessandro’s Sausage and Peppers, and now runs a catering business, Alessandro’s Catering.
Mr. Hoffmann has always enjoyed the events that our school hosts; “My favorite events are the ones at St Helen. I feel it’s like cooking for my family,” he shared. Even when he isn’t present at every event, we recognize him as an important part of our community.
He will be cooking for the upcoming Grinchmas, Christmas Fair, Rosarian Society Breakfast, and hopefully many more events.
He donates food to a high school is Brooklyn that is less privileged. His passion for cooking has been evident since a young age. “I started cooking at a young age and tried to perfect every dish I made. I worked at Joe’s Pizza on Crossbay Blvd and was taught even more from Joe Decandia Sr. When he passed away, my partner and I took ownership from 2004-2006.”
Mr. Hoffmann’s favorite dish is his chicken francese, while his most popular dishes include his egg rolls, chicken teriyaki over rice, and his Philly cheesesteak heroes.
With Thanksgiving approaching, Mr. Hoffmann expressed his gratitude: “I am proud to be part of a team with Roe Barrella , Allison Abruzzino, and Rebecca Delucia on Home Academy that is working on a plan to boost the canned good drive.”
His favorite sports team is the Mets, but they haven’t won a championship since the year his family moved here. “My family has been living here since 1986, which is the last year my favorite sports team won a championship, the Mets.” Mr. Hoffmann’s ardor for cooking has impacted many lives; he is looking forward to working with us again soon.
