At 82 years young, Italian native Grace Geramita aka Nonna Gracie never set out to be an internet star. Nor did her 13-year-old great-nephew Tony Barisano aka Tony CashNYC. But that's exactly what these two Eastchester residents have become. And it all started with a love for cooking, a devotion to family and a fierce pride in their Italian roots.
Sandwiched between this is a story about olive oil — Geramita launched her own brand in April — and the tradition of passing recipes from one generation to another. There's also more (a lot more!) about Barisano whose follower count rivals Nonna's and is growing at warp speed.
