Pasquale Jones Brings Something Fresh to the Dining Landscape
That old bellwether of the New York dining landscape, the Italian restaurant, has lately undergone what Darwinians like to call an "evolutionary leap."

La seconda vita del pizzaiolo italiano Prima espulso, oggi re di New York
Adesso che gli americani scrivono di lui sui giornali e le tv lo invitano ai programmi di cucina come «ambasciatore del gusto italiano» e tutti lo chiamano «Peppe» — fortunatamente, perché Giuseppe in bocca agli anglosassoni diventa di solito «Guiseppe» o altre cose bizzarre — e sta per aprire un ristorante a New York insieme con un socio sembra ch...

Uno è arrivato in America per amore, l'altro per amore vi è rimasto. Entrambi napoletani doc, sono i nuovi ambasciatori del made in Napoli a New York.
