A Not So Traditional Name…. For A Not So Traditional Restaurant

 “FINBARS!... That does not sound Italian?” Well, it’s not…traditionally speaking that is. St. Finbars is the parish and school where our family is from in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn. A place with more Italian families per square foot than… well, let’s just say there are plenty of grandmas, moms and quite a few uncles that all know how and love to cook. That’s where these recipes come from…Spring, Mulberry, and Elizabeth St. on the East side of Manhattan to 85 th St. and 18 th Ave. in Bensonhurst…straight to the point food…and plenty of it! What’s not so traditional about that? Well, we have been in California for plenty of years now and our Left Coast recipes reflect what we have learned here. So traditional New York Italian or not so traditional...FINBARS…a not so traditional name for a not so traditional restaurant. Have fun!
