Career

Renowned Chef

Wahlberg had a keen interest in food from an early age and spent most of his childhood in the kitchen with his mother Alma, watching cooking shows such as “The Galloping Gourmet”. When he was 12, he fell in love with food over a meal at a friend’s house, eventually deciding to pursue a career as a professional chef.

“There’s a kind of energy working in a kitchen that’s very, very different from working in an office… It’s not like any other job. It’s crazy and you’re always putting out [figurative] burning,” he said of the decision. He worked as a caterer while still in high school, washing dishes at his friend’s family restaurant. After graduation, he gained valuable experience at the Newbury College of the Culinary Arts and worked in a number of restaurants such as “The Four Seasons”, “The Charles Hotel” and “Bridgeman’s” in Hull, Massachusetts, where he was the Executive Chef for nine years. He was also a caterer on two sets of Mark’s films – “Max Payne” and “The Happening” – as well as many other films.

Finally he gained enough experience and expertise in the field and opened his own restaurant called Alma Nové– “Nove” is the Italian word for nine, the number of children his mother has – in Boston. It’s a Mediterranean/Italian restaurant serving classic dishes like Prince Edward Island fried clams, wood-grilled sirloin steak, and braised pork meatballs with polenta. Paul supports local grocers by using their fresh ingredients in his meals and serving fresh seafood from the sea.

In 2011, he teamed up with Mark and Donnie to “Wahlburgers”, a casual burger restaurant and bar located in Hingham, Boston, near Alma Nove, to show off the ‘…slopiest Sloppy Joe’s, the tastiest tater tots and the frothiest frappes’.

After the success of the restaurant, the brothers opened more chains in the US, Canada, UK and Germany with a total of 36 chains.

Reality TV star

In 2014, the brothers launched a series about the A&E Network titled “Wahlburgers”, which shows the Wahlberg family, their behind-the-scenes life and the operation of the restaurant. Initially, the series was supposed to run for 18 episodes, but due to high demand, it ran for 10 seasons and 95 episodes. It received an Emmy nomination for the “Outstanding Unstructured Reality Program” award; after five years of airing it came to a end on the 31st July 2019 in Dorchester, where it all started.
