Nick Cimino of Lake Geneva, Wisconsin has an awesome pizza & pasta restaurant. Mama Cimino's. I met Nick tonight when I rolled in tired and hungry, a stranger in town. We got to talking about his family, which came to America from Sicily in 1971. Nick finished up by proudly telling me that his son Tony recently opened a place in the Pawn Stars food court in downtown Las Vegas. Tony's Pizza.
To which I said, "I have a little apartment in Las Vegas, Nick. Your son's restaurant is exactly one block from me & I can see it from the window beside my writing desk. I gazed out at it this morning when I was working, in fact, about an before I flew to Chicago so I could drive here."
I'll be checking on Tony for his dad & eating at his restaurant.
You should go too.
