It is a annual tradition for people running th marathon to have a nice Italian Pasta Dinner the night before the Marathon, on Saturday evening in order to "Carb Up" for energy to run the grueling 26 mile race. Yes the Pasta and Maccheroni wil be flowing at Italian Restaurants all over New York this evening. Little Italy on Mulberry Street will be all a-buzz with activiy, "Runners Eating Pasta." Some of New York's best Italian Restaurants with great plates of pasta are; Bar Pitti in Greewnich Village, Monte's Trattoria Greenwich Village for those runners staying at Mid-Town Hotels, Elio's on the Upper East Side, and Emilio Balato on East Houston Street .. Marathon Runners we "Salute" and wish "Bon Appetito" ! Mangi Bene! Mangia la Pasta!

Frank Sinatra Favorite Foods

and Daughters NANCY & TINA

at JILLY'S

NEW YORK





  Frank Sinatra, both the greatest singer and greatest entertainer of the 20th Century. No question. Sinatra was a legendary icon whose star still shines bright. He was a musical icon, celebrity, international personality, and to millions of Italian-Americans he was our own, a paisan. Frank was an Italian-American whose ancestry is from Genoa on his mother's side of the family and Sicilian on his father's side. And being Italian, Frank loved the food he grew up with, Dolly made a mean Marianara Sauce as well as Meatballs and the all-time Italian-American favorite Sunday Sauce (aka Gravy). Frank loved the food of his childhood; the Spaghetti & Meatballs, Stuffed Artichokes, Pasta Fazool, Frittata, Eggplant Parmigiana and all the usual suspects of the Italian-American table. It's a well known fact that Frank's favorite restaurant was Patsy's on 56th Street in New York ... When Frank went to Patsy's his favorite dishes were Calms Posillipo and Veal Milanese with a nice plate of Spaghetti Pomodoro in-between, and maybe a slice of Cheesecake to finish if Frank was in the mood.

Tony Sopranos Gabagool Sandwich




Gabagools






TONY SOPRANOS GABAGOOL SANDWICH



1. Gabagool
Definition : "Gabagool" is slang for "capicola." It is not a mispronunciation, but is instead in Napolitan dialect, which is what the Sopranos and many Italian-Americans use. The rule in this dialect is to chop off ending vowels and to voice unvoiced consonants.Ricotta-"rigot"
2. Manicotti-"manigot ...  gabagool= Capicola Ham.  "My wife sends me here to shop because they got good gabagool."   3. Gabagool
The Sicilian pronunciation for the spicy deli ham "Capicola".  "Do you want provologne on your gobagool sandwich?" 4. Gabagool - The americanized version of the Italian word "Capicola" made popular by Tony Soprano and other ignorant 2nd & 3rd generation Italo-Americans who have forgotten how to speak italian properly. Capicola is a spicy deli meat similar to ham or salami.
