TONY DRINKS a "NEGRONI"

he Just LOVED Them



My favorite Italian delicacies to indulge in are . . . There’s a place that does a nice shellfish tower in the nearby town of Desenzano. I eat pizza everywhere. I indulge in massive amounts of local salumi, Lombardian wines, linguine vongole, and the occasional massive bistecca Fiorentina. Though I rarely eat desserts ordinarily, on vacation I am susceptible to frequent trips to the gelateria. And Negronis. I drink way too many Negronis.

TONY EATS PASTA


"Tony Eats Pasta" is a wonderful  art piece designed by the artist Bellino. 

The artist Bellino painted a beautiful painting of the late great Anthony Bourdain, doing what he loved doing best, Eating The World. Here we find Tony eating his favorite of all pasta dishes, Cacio Pepe in Rome, at Roma Sparita Restaurant, ROME Italy. It's no secret Bourdain loved eating pasta, and that his favorite was Cacio Pepe, a famous pasta dish of Rome. Anthony Bourdain, wished he was, at least part Italian. He said it all the time. And wished for his very own Italian Nonna. Anthony Loved Italians, Italy, the food, the people, and Italian Culture in general, whether it was in Italy, or with Italian-Americans eating their favorite dish of all, Sunday Sauce (aka Gravy), Tony wanted to be Italian, and he even married an Italian woman, his 2nd wife Ottavia Busia, of Sardegna, Italy. 

Anyway, we just love this awesome piece by Bellino, who created this Limited Edition Art-Piece from his original painting he made of Anthony  eating Cacio Pepe pasta in Rome. 

If you are a fan of Tony's, you are absolutely sure to just love this piece, of Tony. This is a limited edition run, so get your awesome "Tony Eats Pasta" art today !


GIFT IDEAS : Christmas, Birthday GIFTS and all occasions.

Editorial Reviews :

Review :Great Recipes & Stories of Italian-America .... I didn't know what to expect before I loaded this on to my Kindle and started reading. The premise of the book is a set of Italian recipes with each one accompanied by a story. This is the first of its kind that I've ever read or even heard of, so I thought I'd give it a chance and wasn't disappointed after finishing it a few days ago.

Daniel does a great job of creating the recipes and making sure that each one feels authentic and taste wonderful. All of the stories with each recipe is also well done and does a great job of connecting the food to the story. It's hard to figure out which one is more enjoyable. The story side or the recipe side of this novel, but I had to chose it would be the recipe side of the novel as the recipes are truly great and highlight Italian cuisine.If you're looking for a great cook book to give you some great Italian dishes to try out all courses, with a few stories to read while your food is cooking, then this is definitely the book you've been looking for. As it does a splendid job of creating wonderful, quality meals..Buy This One ... 

This is The Best Italian Cookbook Ever !Authentic Italian Cooking ... Many of the recipes are very close to those, my grandmother,who was from Sicily, made. These recipes are very good. My only critique is that the book could be edited better, but the recipes are very good. Buy the book if you want authentic italian recipes.From the AuthorI'd like to thank everyone who has obtained anyone of my books and for your many kind words about some of the joys the recipes and stories within have pleased you. It's truly an honor for me for each and every book that anyone obtains of mine and I thank each and everyone of you. A special thanks to those who have said Sunday Sauce is  The Best Italian Cookbook Ever. 

Sincerely,Daniel.

For a 2 Year Period between 2014 to 2016 the Kindle Edition of SUNDAY SAUCE was # 1 BEST SELLER of ITALIAN COOKBOOKS on AMAZON KINDLE longer than any other cookbook.
