“My family and I would like to take this time to welcome you and your neighborhood Italian Kitchen. We extend a warm heartfelt reception, please relax and enjoy your hospitality. Let me tell you a little about myself. For 38 years, I raised my family and cooked for my husband and 7 children in New York. We then decided to move (and because we loved the beach so much we moved to – yes – another beach). 

I now know my heart is in California. We opened an Italian Kitchen – using my Italian grandmother’s old fashioned and time tested recipes. These recipes are made with the very finest ingredients, we combine these with a love for cooking. We know what genuine homemade Italian food tastes like. Papa D, myself or one of the children constantly supervise the cooking.
