Italian-Style Dog Biscuits
Early Happy Father’s Day to our Dad, Massimo Morgia! I bet you didn’t know that Father’s Day is celebrated in Italy on March 19th rather than in June, like we do here. It’s on St. Joseph’s Day (father of Jesus), a day of celebration that, of course, includes delicious Italian cuisine…with the most popular traditional foods on this day being cakes and biscuits. So, in honor of our Dad… here’s a wonderful Italian Biscuit recipe for DOGS! Enjoy…Godere!

Upstairs at Massimo’s Wine Bar focuses on small plates
of appetizers, salads and pasta along with eclectic meat, cheese and condiment choices. It also offers the same superb wines and cocktails as served downstairs. The artful, innovative dishes served upstairs, as always, capture Massimo’s passion for exquisite Italian cuisine.
