Peachy's Pet Pals: The Fish in Culinary King Sal Scognamillo's Aquarium
"Spotted orange tail file fish. Blue jaw trigger fish!" Sal tells Peachy...
...and this might be the first time that we've featured fish that Peachy did not devour! When Sal is not in the hot kitchen, he is cooling off by his delightful kingdom of pesce! (that's fish in Italian.) It's not total serenity though because Sal is successfully exercising, slimming down while he watches his friends swim by.
And, in case you want to EAT fish:
Founded in 1944 by Pasquale "Patsy" Scognamillo, Patsy's Italian Restaurant has been in its current and only theater district location on West 56th Street (in the building just next to the original site) since 1954. Celebrating its 70th Anniversary this year, the one and only Patsy's Italian Restaurant has had only three chefs--the late Patsy himself, his son Joe Scognamillo, Joe's son Sal Scognamillo; it is this family's labor of love. Patsy's Italian Restaurant has been known for years as Frank Sinatra's favorite restaurant, and in fact, his family still enjoys dining at Patsy's Italian Restaurant whenever they are in town. In addition to Sinatra and family, Patsy's Italian Restaurant has become a favorite with countless stars on both the east and west coast, who have come to regard Patsy's Italian Restaurant as a mecca of Italian fine dining. They enjoy the restaurant's remarkable signature dishes, including succulent Veal Chops Siciliano, spicy Lobster Fra Diavolo, tender Chicken Contadina, and savory Calamari stuffed with seafood and more including some of the finest pasta dishes in the city. Patsy's Italian Restaurant's famous sauces, made from the freshest, most mouth-watering ingredients, are available in better supermarkets and specialty food stores throughout the U.S. Some of Patsy's Italian Restaurant high profile patrons include Rush Limbaugh, Al Pacino, Placido Domingo, Alec Baldwin, Kim Basinger, Tom Hanks, Madonna, George Clooney, Rappers Heavy "D" and Sean "Puff Daddy" Combs, David Letterman, Oprah Winfrey,Tony Bennett, Don King, Robert DeNiro, Don Rickles, Jacklyn Smith, Phyllis George, Stephen King, Mario Puzo, Calvin Klein, Carroll O'Connor, Jon Bon Jovi, Liza Minelli, John F.
