"I have seen Henry grow from a boy to a man, as we were in elementary school together from Kindergarten to High School. I don't know of a bigger humanitarian than this man.

As a child, I could sense Henry tried to care for others in a way like no one else did . And now I see him as a man, and he still has that glimmer in his eye wanting to help everyone he comes into contact with. I'm proud to say I know Henry Bousquet and, I know someday he will make a difference for all of us, in this wonderful city in which we live."

Steven Caton ~ New Bedford Resident

“I've got to know Henry Bousquet through the Mt. Pleasant Neighborhood Association and come to see his sincerity and passion to help make New Bedford's neighborhoods a safer place to live. When a neighbor and I went before the Traffic Commission to call attention to the problem of heavy traffic and speeders on Hathaway Road Henry willingly accompanied us and spoke to the commission on our behalf. “

“I've known Henry for upwards of two years. Many a'tale of his excellent character and general benevolence rung true as I witnessed these virtues  firsthand. Beyond myriad guests singing the praises of Chef Henry, it was his attention to detail and appreciation of life's finer things which inspire this recommendation. I would fight anyone who challenges this man's integrity. Excelsior!”

Carlton Cobb

“I have known Henry Bousquet for the last 10 years.
I know him to be a hard working and responsible man with an empathy for others and a strong sense of civic responsibility.”
