Giuseppe and Corino grew up like brothers in
Palermo, Italy. Both of them being the adventuresome
fun loving types, they
traveled to the United
States to see the
country and explore.
After discovering the
beauty of
Seattle, they
decided to stay and
began working in the
restaurant business.
They made new friends,
put down roots and
rented a flat together.
Ah blissful youth!
They eventually tired of
working so hard for
others &
decided to start up
their own |
place,
La
Vita é Bella Café in
Belltown
was born,
& eventually grew to
include a Pizzeria &
Full Service Bar.
Of course
now that the boys had
both become successful
entrepreneurs they
found that special
someone,
got married, had
children and settled
into new homes & lives
in the lovely
neighborhood of
Magnolia,
just NW of Belltown.
With their new families
they decided that they
wanted to open a special
neighborhood restaurant. |
A
place that captured the
essence of Mondello,
their home town.
Ah,
Mondello,
the little town just
North of Palermo, Sicily
where they
lived, loved &
learned
to cook with
friends and family!
Ristorante Mondello
was born!
With its soft blue
walls, sand-like floors,
sea shell decor & it's
casual elegance.
You can almost feel the
sand between your toes & the
salt in your hair when
you walk through the
door.
Ciao Bella! |
