Italy may be over 6,000 miles away, but for those hungering for food from the old country, Capish Pizza-ristorante in Le Roy delivers. “I hear there are a lot of Italians living here, and that we can remind them what their grandparents how they used to cook in the old days,” said Jim Frascati, the location’s owner. Capish will be serving pizza — both American and Italian style — and some authentic Sicilian dishes.

“Put my mom’s cooking to use,” joked Frascati, who moved over to the United States from Sicily with his family when he was 12. The pizzeria’s signature pizza will be the Sfincione, a Sicilian thick pizza.

It will likewise offer bruschetta, or grilled bread with toppings, and and caponata, a Sicilian eggplant dish.
