Phil worked in foodservice in his teens and had an awakening while working for the C.A. Muer Corporation. He became a manager for the well known Detroit seafood restaurateur. During his time there, he was privileged to work for Corporate Chef and native Italian Larry Pagliari. Chef Larry was notorious for his obsession for Quality Meals. This statement remains in the Pepperonis mission and logo to this day.
