Every Season in New England brings with it a new perspective. Our mindset changes, our clothes change, light changes and our food inevitably follows suit.
Autumn Begins that is what the little square on my calendar says. I rather like that term best, more so than ‘First Day Of’ or the like. It has a gentler connotation. A ‘rolling into’ instead of a definitive start. And so New England weather really makes its most flashy attempt to win the hearts of its residents this season. It got me long ago, and yet I am still amazed at the sensation I get from the first inhale of a perfect fall day. It never disappoints. September marks the beginning of the rolling into. A gentle mixing of summer and fall will find its way into our kitchen and onto your plate.

Matt and Kristen on the Hewtin's Dog truck

about us

We met while working on opposite sides of the ‘house’ at the wonderful Hamersley’s Bistro in Boston. Soon thereafter we set our course for Rhode Island and opened the doors of Chez Pascal in March of 2003. The restaurant is constantly evolving with the ebb and flow of local, seasonal produce; taking cue from the fantastic farmers who inspire us and remaining true to classic, thoughtful food.

the truck

Hewtin’s Dogs Mobile Food Truck was created in 2008 as a result of Matt’s incessant fascination (passion) for making sausages and curing meats. It’s an extension of our beloved Hot Dog Cart that’s located in the park across the street from the restaurant in weather permitting months. The Truck is designed to feature our House Made Sausages, Sandwiches and Cured Meats, changing frequently like the restaurant menu, based on what is in season. It has developed a wonderful loyal following (to which we are most grateful) and therefore currently resides in places that we have frequented weekly since its inception. It has the ability to go places the little cart never could but never travels too far from home.

the wurst kitchen

The Wurst Kitchen is a small open kitchen located in Chez Pascal. This opened in 2012 and focuses on our house made sausages even more! Open for lunch and dinner. Check out the Wurst Kitchen story on this site!
You haven’t had our best until you’ve had our wurst.

If you’ve been a hundred times or have never been before, we invite you to experience all that the seasons have to offer through our menus. We hope the charm of the dining room, the comforting ease of the staff, and the enticing combination of flavors and aromas will make your first visit to Chez Pascal the first of many. We look forward to seeing you soon!
