A longtime chef and restaurant owner, Gerard Nebesky's culinary career began when he was just 23 years old. Looking to open a graphic design business in Grass Valley, he ended up instead opening a restaurant. The Bohemian Cafe in Occidental, opened by Gerard at that young age, was a hugely popular and beloved restaurant during its time in Occidental.
People still remember the amazing atmosphere, and of course, they all remember Gerard. Always an adventurer, Gerard was profoundly influenced when he was introduced to the joys of classic Spanish Paella while skiing in Spain. Once he mastered the art of cooking this dish to perfection, he founded Gerard's Paella and took his passion on the road, where he is always happy to introduce others to Spain's most famous dish.

Report
I love Gerard's Paella - Paella is one of my favorite dishes in the world. I have experienced many paella in Spain, from Madrid to Barcelona, and Marbella and Ibiza which were amazing. I must say that Gerard's Paella is definitely on par or even better than the best paella I've had in Spain. The only problem is that each time I eat way too much.

Send us an email to hear more about menu options, and information on pricing for additional items. The following is our standard dinner service, though we are always happy to add or change things from our menu. An oven crisped toast with sauteed red peppers and our house made Romesco sauce, a hazelnut and roasted red pepper-based sauce that originated from Northeastern Spain.
Weddings
Report
Weddings are joyful occasions, and we believe paella fits in wonderfully at any wedding. Nothing speaks to unity so much as having all your guests served food from one, or two, carefully and lovingly cooked paellas. From our own experience at weddings, we can't think of a better offering to your guests than delicious food served on time!

Do you require a minimum number of guests? Is there a maximum number you can handle? Our minimum that we cook for is 25 people Monday-Thursdays in the summer, and 35 for Friday-Sunday from May-November, but if your event is smaller than that, email us anyway about your event and let's see what we can do!
