Albert J. Biancalana Jr. started working at his father’s restaurant in Elmwood Park in 1957. Over the course of the next six decades and his brothers came to run the business, overseeing its growth and evolution into a legendary banquet hall that they sold in 2019. All the while, Biancalana has been involved in Elmwood Park and the surrounding community through organizations and local government – even today at 86-years-old.
In recognition of his dedicated service, Biancalana will receive the Lifetime Achievement Award from the West Central Municipal Conference on Oct. 24 at Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont (For details or to make reservations, call 708-453-9100.)
