Rothchild’s

1983 – 1985

Nathan (a chef by trade) and Susan Rothchild began their career in the hospitality and food service industry as the owners of Northshore Minute Chef, a local snack shop in the Northshore Tower. The couple then expanded their services at the tower to a 20-table top restaurant. Naturally, their catering careers grew as patrons would often request orders for private parties.

1978

While working on her MBA, Susan had taken a job in hospitality service at a local restaurant that Nathan frequented. Susan, being focused on her studies and work, was not interested in dating. However, guided by a straightforward approach to life, Nathan took a chance and asked her out by bonding over the one thing we all have to take time to do, saying “well you have to eat don’t you?” From there, a relationship was formed by sharing meals together.

With the growing demand for services allowing for expansion, Rothchild Catering became a business that offered both off-site catering and space to hold events at their new and permanent home at 8807 Kingston Pike, where the center remains today.
