BY CORTNEY BRYANT
FOR THE OBSERVER-REPORTER

When life didn't go as planned, Joseph Pintola took a hobby and created a new career.

Twenty five years ago, like many Pennsylvanians, Pintola was laid off from a local steel mill.

Pintola had always loved to cook. While he was working at the steel mill, cooking was only a hobby. Now, he needed a new career. He decided to open a small tavern that served food.

His Mexican dishes were the most popular, so he opened Hungry Jose's, a local restaurant specializing in Mexican cuisine. The name incorporated his nickname - Jose.

At the time, there were no Mexican restaurants in the area, so Pintola seized the opening in the market.

As demand for his food increased, he began offering catering services. Eventually, he opened Julian's Catering and Banquet Facility, which is named for his son. This allowed him to provide onsite and offsite catering.

Pintola's company provides a variety of services. He provides the food and also the facility for events such as weddings and office luncheons and parties.

"Food service is the second largest employer in the state of Pennsylvania," Pintola said. Therefore, there are plenty of employment opportunities from waiter to caterer to chef.

Catering is not a 9-to-5 job. Caterers must work unusual hours. Pintola works whenever the clients are holding their events. Many times, that includes evenings and weekends.

There are also many benefits to being a successful caterer, such as getting to eat really good food.

Pintola points out that many entrepreneurs who enter the food service industry as catering service or restaurant owners expect things to happen quickly. They spend large sums of money to expand their businesses. Pintola sees this as the main reason so many food service companies go out of business.

Pintola has avoided this pitfall by slowly expanding his businesses. It has taken him 25 years to get where he is today.

Flexibility is also key.

Referring to his restaurant, Pintola said, "If Mexican food hadn't worked, I would have tried Italian." He handles most of the catering and chef duties and only enlists the help of his staff for large jobs.

"If you do it yourself then you know it is done right since no one knows how to do things the way you like it better than you," Pintola said.
