While the pandemic has found some businesses embracing the pop-up, for Pelino’s Pasta it has meant making things permanent. Husband and wife team Vinny and Christina Pelino will take their traveling, pop-up concept Pelino’s Pasta and make things stationary with their first brick-and-mortar restaurant at 245 King Ave. It will occupy the former home of Yellow Brick Pizza.
Vinny grew up in Columbus as part of a large, Italian family. Family gatherings were food-focused and featured homemade sausage, pasta and wine, and great-grandma’s bread, which she made nearly every day of her life. He loved the culture and the food.
