CASA IMPORTS JOINS THE FERRARO FOODS FAMILY Vito D’alessandro, John Fornino and Filippo Casamento came to America from Italy in the 1960s. They began Casa Imports with the mission to provide high quality, consistent products while providing a superior level of customer service. Since then, Casa Imports has grown to service five states in the Northeast with over 3,000 customers. Casa Imports focuses on pizzeria/ trattoria and casual dining customers in Upstate New York and Northern Pennsylvania. Casa Imports offers well-known national brands along with premium exclusive brands such as the widely recognized Cora and Casa labels. During September 2021 Casa Imports entered into a strategic partnership agreement with Ferraro Foods. This partnership is the next step in Ferraro Foods growth strategy and will enable Ferraro to service their upstate New York customers with

greater productivity and efficiency. Casa Imports will benefit with access to expanded technological resources and transportation synergies, while maintaining its focus of serving end user pizzerias and restaurants in the Upstate New York and Northern PA regions. “Both Ferraro Foods and Casa Imports have long been institution leaders in the Italian foodservice distribution segment”. The SKU additions of Casa Imports’ hallmark brands will add to Ferraro Foods’ ever-growing portfolio of quality exclusive brand offerings. Casa Imports’ location in Utica, New York will position us to better service our customers in the upstate New York market. The addition of Casa Imports to the Ferraro Foods Family will arm us with the firepower needed to further support our pizzeria/ trattoria and restaurant community from Maine to Miami,” said Michael Giammarino, CEO of Ferraro Foods.

CASA IMPORTS CUSTOMER SPOTLIGHT

Sales Associate: Dave Palmiter Interviewed: Piero Lisio, Partner History: What sets your restaurant apart from the competition? Little Venice Restaurant opened in August of 1946 at Meatballs or Meat Logs a house on the corner of Court & Cherry streets. The “Why aren’t the meatballs round?” restaurant has always had one location operated by the This is without a doubt the most same family for 75 years. The restaurant is now operated common question asked by new by Romeo Lisio and Bernadette Lisio (second generation) customers. Little Venice meatballs and their children Piero Lisio, Gina Minichino and son-in-law are uniquely shaped and are often Michael Minichino. referred to as “meat logs”. The meatballs have been shaped like sausages since 1946. Over the course of 75 years, Little Venice has had 3 locations. Little Venice Restaurant moved to its current location, 111 Chenango Street in 1968. Over the course of the 50 plus years at the current location the restaurant has expanded 4 different times. The last expansion took place 7 years ago when a new dining room was built along with 4 private dining rooms.

What is the most popular item on the menu? The Legendary House Made Tomato Sauce Thick, smooth and sweet, Little Venice’s House Made tomato sauce is unlike any other. The sauce recipe is a guarded family secret known only to 2 people. During the 6 plus decades that Little Venice has operated only 6 cooks have ever made the sauce. Rumors persist about the sauce recipe, but the truth is the correct recipe is not on the internet and the sauce does NOT contain applesauce. Little Venice’s sauce is not only enjoyed here in the restaurant, but all over the country. Little Venice started selling sauce in the 1940’s when customers would bring their own pot to the restaurant’s back door to purchase sauce to take home. Eventually, this practice evolved into the restaurant selling quarts of sauce to go and shipping sauce as well. What do you enjoy most about operating a restaurant? My favorite part of the restaurant business is the people. I enjoy working side by side with our staff and seeing our guests every day. We have had the pleasure of seeing generations of families both work here at the restaurant or as customers. The friendships we have developed and the celebrations we have been a part of over the years is the most rewarding part of the business. We are proud to be a part of our community and a part of family’s gatherings. 111 Chenango St, Binghamton, NY 13901

(607) 724-2513

Aunt Carmella, the original cook, always made her meatballs long because she insisted the long shape allowed the meat to cook more evenly. Aunt Carmella didn’t like how round meatballs would burn on the outside before the middle cooked. To this day Little Venice meatballs are still made Aunt Carmella style, in the shape of a “meat log”. Pasta When ordering pasta at Little Venice it is as fresh as if you made it at home. Little Venice’s pasta dough is made daily, however your pasta is not rolled out until you order it. Spaghetti, Macaroni and Linguine are rolled out when you order using a hand crank pasta machine designed by owner Romeo Lisio. Raviolis are made each morning with the same house made dough and then filled, with a creamy ricotta cheese filling. Little Venice’s manicotti is unique in that it is made with house made crêpes instead of dough. The crepes are filled with a creamy ricotta filling. Lasagna is made of layers of our house made dough, house made meat logs, Italian sausage, ricotta cheese and of course our tomato sauce. Any advice for other Restaurant owners? Always serve a quality product that you are proud to put your name on. When costs go up do not sacrifice quality thinking your guests won’t notice. Maintain your product and brand integrity and raise your prices. The customer will not leave you over small price increases as long as they see your product as a good value. Never stop improving your business We come to work everyday looking for ways to improve the business. Whether its new recipes or menu items or operational improvements. We are constantly looking to be better than we were yesterday. This approach keeps our guests coming back, but it also creates an environment where people want to work, and you are challenged every day.

FRENCH FRY 101

French fries can play a profitable role on menus when done right. They can be used to offset other costs in your product mix because of their high profit margin. For example, the average 8 oz. of fries at $0.50 is able to give you a potential profit of $3.49 if sold at $3.99. The purchase of premium fries does not necessarily mean lower profit margins. Premium fries are often longer in size and contain high solids-upholding its shape for a longer period of time. This results in less product needed to fill the dish or container it is put in. Shorter fries typically take more to fill a container, and can require more oil.

WHAT MAKES A GREAT FRY?

What separates an okay French fry from a great one is its texture, length and solid contents. Ideally your fries should have a crunchy exterior and a light, fluffy interior. When eating a serving of French fries, the last fry should always hold its form. Imagine eating a burger with a side of fries. Fries are either eaten first or last- so be sure to leave a lasting impression. Consistency is also key to great fries (think about McDonald’s fries). Keeping consistency in your preparation and cooking process, reduces quality errors.

your fries come in can be as important as the fries itself. According to Datassential, 44% of takeout and delivery orders take more than 30 minutes to receive, so make sure your fries survive the trip. Select your delivery containers wisely to assure the greatest customer experience. Below are some key factors to keep in mind when packaging your fries:

HOW TO PREPARE TO MAXIMIZE TASTE Fill your fry basket only halfway. Use a thermometer to make sure the oil it is being fried in is at the right temperature. Shake the fry basket after about 30 seconds of cooking–to ensure that every fry gets its even coat of oil. Cook for the exact recommended time on the package. For best results, serve no longer than 7 minutes after cooking. Oil should be changed out daily, or even more frequently, depending on usage.

WHAT MAKES A GREAT FRY? French fries are the fastest growing item on delivery orders across all age groups. Compared to the year prior, French fry delivery increased by 42.8%. Food delivery is not just for pizza anymore, as delivery is becoming more accessible and consumers place a higher value on convenience. The packaging

Container that is covered to prevent heat loss

A vented container to prevent excess of moisture

Enough space in the container for breathability

The best fries for a to-go menu are thicker, cut 3/8’’ or wedges. This is because the slimmer cut fries do not maintain their heat as well. Also, be sure the fries you are packaging are a coated product to avoid sogginess and a buildup of moisture. Bottom line is that the quality of your fries matter and make a lasting impression on your customers–because they may be the last bites they eat of their meal–whether they dined in or got their meal to-go. Lastly, cheaper fries do not always translate to higher profits because of their hold time. Do your fries pass the test? Written by: Sara Mahmood

It was here at a young age that Joe learned the art of pizza making and fell in love with it. Joe’s love for the pizza business eventually led him to starting his own restaurant on Long Island. In 2006, Joe made the decision to move to North Carolina because of the great opportunity and demand for high quality, New York-style pizza. In 2012, Joe opened Mia Famiglia with the help of his wife, Sandra. Joe can’t express his appreciation for her enough. “Sandra is the brains behind the operation” he says. Since its opening, Mia Famiglia has become a staple in its community. What is the most popular item on the menu? The most popular item on his menu is his cheese pizza. He attributes the popularity of his pies to his days mastering the art of the NY-style pie back in Long Island, arguably the pizza capital of the world. What sets your restaurant apart from the competition? Joe says that the quality and freshness of his food sets him apart from the others, however, his dedication to the community is what really takes it a step further to stand out among the local crowd. Joe proudly lends his support and help to the VFW, police force and the community as a whole. He has received an award from the town of Indian Trail for providing free lunches for students during COVID, as well as an award from the Union County Sheriff’s department for his dedicated support. Why work with Ferraro Foods? Joe has a long history using Ferraro Foods, as his father had used them back in Long Island with his restaurant. When he opened his pizzeria in North Carolina, he decided to use a distributor he had an existing relationship with. He says both his salesmen back in NY and his current one have been great to work with over the years. Any advice for other Restaurant owners? “If you have a passion and dedication to owning a restaurant, it is a great business to have.”

WAYS TO ENHANCE YOUR DINING EXPERIENCE THIS

Holiday Season

This holiday season, make your dining experience even better by adding some thoughtful touches to your usual operations. Make this holiday season the best one yet and end this year off great. ’Tis the season to indulge in the most delicious food and spread holiday cheer.

The Last Bite // 40


A TRADITIONAL ITALIAN TOUCH Offer limited time traditional dishes like a take on the Italian “feast of the seven fishes”. Promote your limited-time Pesce al Forno or Paccheri con Sugo di Mare. Buone Feste!

HOLIDAY THEMED GIFT OR MEAL KITS Create a thoughtful package of your jared homemade sauce or pasta. Additionally, you could create a “Snow Day at Home Pizza Kit” for kids to enjoy on a day stuck inside. Another kit idea is a cannoli making kit including red and green sprinkles or M&Ms.

DECORATIONS OF COURSE! Brighten up your space and set a warm ambiance with some string lights and decorative signage. You may choose to use generic “Happy Holidays” decorations to be as inclusive as possible or highlight several popular holidays among your customers.

DESSERT SPECIALS People tend to indulge in sweet treats more during the season, so offer limited time desserts in addition to your usual options. Offer desserts like tiramisu, cheesecake, cannoli, cookies, and more. Don’t forget to let them know they can take it to-go! We offer to-go single serve desserts, such as cheesecakes and tiramisu.

GIVE BACK TO YOUR COMMUNITY Communicate to your customers that their extra change goes towards a particular charity in your area. They could choose to “round up” their meal total to the nearest dollar. You could also host a fundraiser night where a percentage of the sales go to a local charity or non-profit. Lastly, a great idea is to collaborate with a local charity to hold a clothing drive at your location where a bin is provided and customers put donations inside such as outerwear or canned goods.

PROMOTING YOUR GIFT CERTIFICATES During the season of gifting customers may choose to give a friend one of your certificates. Not only does this bring revenue for you, but allows someone to come to your location who might not have otherwise. This person may come back even after their gift certificate runs out of balance because they enjoyed your food. Consider having a contest to give a certificate away. Direct them to do something, such as follow you on Facebook and Instagram for a chance to win a certificate to your restaurant. Lastly, promote your certificates by giving them the offer that for every 50 dollars you spend on certificates, you’ll receive 5 dollars off. People love supporting local businesses and this is the perfect way for them to do this.

PROMOTE YOUR HOLIDAY CHEER Let your customers know what you’re up to on social media. Post a photo of your decorated dining area or raise awareness of your gift certificates. You could also post signage around your restaurant. Finally, don’t forget to send out a thoughtful happy holidays message in a post on your social media channels.

Interviewed: Charlie Marchica

History: Genna Pizza opened its doors in 2013 offering Melbourne locals and tourists the most authentic New York dining experience. Genna Pizza started off from a small 1200 square foot location and now has expanded into a larger dining area to better serve customers. The pizza business is a tradition for Charles’ family; they have been in the business for 24 years. There are only 2 things that matter to Charlie – his family and his restaurant. This shows through Genna Pizza’s family-oriented atmosphere. His website reads “No glossy corporate backing, no fancy pants pies, no pretentious nonsense, and no gimmicky budget pizza either. We are tried and true – the real deal.” What sets Genna apart from the competition? The pizzeria makes their bread fresh by hand daily and every dish is made from scratch. Charlie says “we only buy the most premium ingredients.” Gemma Pizza offers 36 unique specialty pies. This includes a Philly Cheesesteak pie and a Mac and Cheese Pie. Their specialty “Gemma” Pie has Mozzarella, pepperoni, mushrooms, onions, green peppers, olives, ground beef, ham, and Italian sausage. The most popular items on his menu are his pizza, lasagna, chicken and veal francaise and specialty calzones Why work with Ferraro Foods? He works with Ferraro Foods because of the amazing customer service, as well as the excellent product offerings and pricing.

Limited Time Offers inspired by an

Old Italian Tradition Italians anticipate great food to come as we enter the month of December. The Italian meal the evening before Christmas is typically an extravagant seafood feast called The Feast of the Seven Fishes. The tradition was introduced in the United States by Southern Italian immigrants in New York City's Little Italy in the late 1800s. It dates back from the Roman Catholic tradition of abstaining from eating meat on the night before a feast day. Typical seven fishes generally include calamari, scungilli, baccala or dry-salted cod, shrimp, clams, mussels and one large fish — a snapper, trout, tuna or salmon. Fried vegetables are also a popular pairing to the fish, as well as fried artichokes and pickled vegetables. Consider adding some limited time menu items that are inspired by The Feast of the Seven Fishes: Clams Oreganata

Mussels with White Wine

Scungilli Salad

Calamari Fritti

No matter where or what you celebrate, the delicious treats of the holiday season are a must to indulge in–such as biscotti, pandoro, tiramisu, and a loaf of panettone. Happy Feasting! View these and other seafood recipes by scanning the QR Code.

Manuel makes all of his food from scratch, using only the highest-quality ingredients. Caruso’s Pizza does not use imitation cheese, and its sauces are made in-house. With its success, Caruso’s Pizza has expanded to increase its indoor dining capacity to up to 90 people. What is the most popular item on the menu? The most popular item on his menu is pizza of course! Manuel says how there has been many requests for pepperoni, mushroom and sausage pizza recently. Vegetable pizza orders have been in higher demand as well, especially spinach on pizza. Besides pizza, his veal and chicken parmigiana and chicken marsala have always been a hit, especially among his most loyal and frequent patrons. What sets your restaurant apart from the competition? What sets his restaurant apart is how good the food is. Manual says Caruso’s has been recognized among Sussex County competitions as one of the top 4 places to get pizza each year. Why work with Ferraro Foods? Manuel works with Ferraro Foods because it is recognized in its industry and carries most of the product he needs to run his business. He mentions that years ago Ferraro didn’t offer the variety it does today and he is happy with having many options to choose from. Any advice for other restaurant owners? His advice for other restaurant owners in the industry is to be consistent and thorough with your dayto-day operations. Customers demand the same experience and quality each and every time they dine with you, so try not to change up what and how you serve them.

Saltine Crackers 500/2PK Ferraro# 9101275 Napoli# 420110

Seven all-natural ingredients are part of our 100 year old tradition. We believe that the history is in the baking.

Times have changed, but at Westminster Bakers, we haven’t. Leastways, not insofar as things that ma er. The treadmill is gone, and the ovens aren’t wood-fired any longer, but we still take the time and effort to bake the crackers right. We stick with the same basic, wholesome ingredients that our first Master Baker used nearly 200 years ago…ingredients that everyone can pronounce. The "bake" is still long and slow, for crackers that are simply delicious.

Interviewed: Keith Vibert

History:

Prior to opening Mondo Keith Vibert worked for a number of years at Naples Pizza in Farmington CT (which he highly recommends if you’re ever in Central CT). “The owner of Naples, Kurt Kruczek allowed me to be a minority partner in Mondo when it first opened, before later in 2013 selling and financing the sale of the business to me. I owe Kurt a lot and take great pride in creating a pizza and experience here in Middletown that is (hopefully) on par with what he offers in Farmington.” Keith opened his doors to Mondo in late September 2010. Mondo specializes in New York-Style thin crust pizza cooked in a brick oven. Mondo takes pride in preparing many other menu items, all prepared fresh in house. Besides their amazing food selection, Mondo has a great and ever changing beer and wine selection to complement their food. An amazing decision Mondo made is to feature products from other local businesses to support them, such as selling cupcakes from a local bakery.

What is the most popular item on the menu?

Keith says, “This is a very boring answer but it’s Cheese Pizza! Other menu items that get a lot of attention are our Toscano salad and the delicious polenta croutons we offer with it.” He adds that people enjoy his seasonal items when they return on his menu such as Brussel Sprout Pies containing Roasted Brussels, Sopressata, Red Onion, Garlic Cream, Asiago, as well as their Heirloom Tomato Salad containing House focaccia, Heirloom Tomatoes, Burrata and house made red wine vinaigrette.

What sets your restaurant apart from the competition?

“Hopefully it’s our customer service! The goal for me as a restaurant owner is to of course offer great food that makes people want to come back for but without great customer service it does not matter how good your food is! Like all things in life it’s the people and personal interactions that stick with you. So yes, make a great product but you have to have great people too!” Keith says.

Why work with Napoli Foods?

“We work with Napoli for the same reasons that I hope people do business with me… great ingredients and great customer service. Our original salesperson, Marco Marcelo, was always there whenever I needed anything, full stop. Marco made my life easier in a million ways and even after his promotion, which we were very happy to see him get because he deserved it. Marco is still there for us should the need arise! Our (current) salesperson, Lee Kopel has picked up where Marco left off. Having worked with Napoli for about 6 years now it’s clear to me that they understand customer service,” Keith replies.

Any advice for other restaurant owners?

“Sure, and I struggle with this a lot. When you’re not at work, don’t be at work! This is an incredibly hard business to be in and I used to leave work and go home and be looking at my cameras a few times an hour or be checking the numbers to see what type of night we were having and that was all at the expense of being present with my family.” He adds that “Obviously, to make a restaurant work you will need to work long, weird hours but when you do manage to have some free time trust your people to run it the right way.” He concludes by saying that this is all necessary for an important work/life balance.

ENHANCE YOUR RESTAURANT’S WEBSITE A website gives you the power to enhance your brand, customer relationships, and ultimately drive sales. It is important to control what potential customers see, as your website is the only place online that you have complete ownership over.

WHAT YOU NEED ON YOUR WEBSITE ‍ ocation and phone number are visible and hyperlinked L For your location, use a clickable feature to link directly to a site like Google Maps. Include hours of operation in this section as well. It is recommended that your address and phone number are visible on every page. An extra option is to include an email to inquire about catering events or to include a link to book a reservation. Mobile responsiveness A difficult mobile site to navigate can lose you customers. Make sure your layout is not too crowded and as straight forward as possible. Features such as sticky navigation and short drop-down menus, can make it an easier mobile experience. Menu that is easy to navigate Stay away from using PDFs or a file a customer needs to click on. PDFs are difficult to update and not so mobile friendly. Giving people no other option than to download a PDF of your menu instead of listing your menu directly on the site will turn many people away out of frustration. Include your menu as text on a page on your site (HTML based). Effective menus have clickable categories which lead to a page of dishes for that category. Convenient online ordering option According to the National Restaurant Association, 55% of millennials say that the availability of online ordering makes them more likely to choose one restaurant over another. Have your “Order Online” button clear on your homepage in a color that pops. This button would ideally link to an interactive menu where orders can be placed. It can also link to a third-party delivery service. ‍ igh quality photos of your food H Give your customers a taste of what they will expect your food to be like. Include your customer favorites, such as your best selling specialty pizza pie. It is better to have a few great quality photos than many low quality ones. Which food photos got the most engagement on social media? Try to include these.‍

The Last Bite // 64


WHAT MAKES YOUR WEBSITE EVEN BETTER

Need a Website?

An ‘About’ or ‘Our History’ section Some restaurants choose to highlight their background and their passion for the business. Is your restaurant a second or third generation business? Highlight your restaurant’s path to what made it where it is today. Do you have an old photo of your days starting out? Include it here to enhance this section.

Creating a secure and professional looking website is no longer a tedious and daunting task. There are sites for website building and hosting that allow users to use pre-built website templates and drag-and-drop features to create and edit webpages without any knowledge of coding. These sites have built in tools to optimize search engine visibility, mobilefriendly responsiveness, as well as ensure a secure experience. They also have options for orders to be placed directly on your site with certain plans and subscriptions.

A website theme that is consistent to your restaurant Does your website create a virtual version of the same ambiance or theme your restaurant offers? Try to use the same color palette and fonts. Mastering this will really take your website to the next level. Showing consistency on all customer touchpoints is important. Link to your social media Add the social media icons somewhere at the top or bottom of your landing page which links to your active accounts. Keep Instagram visually appealing with delicious photos of your food or behind-the-scenes shots. Use Facebook to share updates and create promotional events. All links should open up in new tabs on their browser to make sure people don’t exit from your website. Information about upcoming events or promotions Would it make sense for you to have a page on your site with important upcoming dates? Some restaurants host events during occasions people gather for, such as a soccer or football game. You may also choose to create a meal discount around these events. Another occasion you could announce is a live performer or band. Customer testimonials Ask permission to use a review a customer submitted about you or a post they made complimenting your food or service. Look on Google, Yelp or any other platform like these to highlight your satisfied customers. A place to collect emails to keep customers informed Place a form on your site to collect emails from customers wanting to stay in the know about your promotions, specials, or any other business updates. Send this group of people exclusive deals and coupons. This is an effective tool to keep your business in the top of your customers minds and ultimately get them back through your door. ‍ ighlight any press coverage or awards your restaurant has earned H Any positive media coverage you have gotten should be present, whether it is a link to an article, video or quote from a publisher or influencer. Even if the media outlet was a small local newscast, find a way to include it because it shows your reputation and position within your community.

History: Before opening Pepperoni’s Pizza in July 2020, Ogun had worked in the pizzeria business for 5 years as well as had experience working in his family’s diner in Cinnaminson, NJ. He says despite the pandemic being very relevant in July of 2020, he saw the opportunity in the takeout space, especially among pizzerias. “Takeout was king then,” he says. Ogun makes his dough fresh daily and all ingredients used are high quality. Pepperoni’s Pizza enjoys being a positive influence within their community. Ogun says that around the time they opened they decided to raise funds to donate a canine to the local police department. In honor of the generous gesture from the pizzeria, the station gave the dog the codename “Pepperoni. Or Pupparoni

Any advice for other restaurant owners? Advice he gives to restaurant owners is to be committed 110% of the time. He says when starting out, you can’t expect success to just come to you–be on top of everything, from expenses to dayto-day operations. What is the most popular item on the menu? The most popular item on the menu is his plain pie. He says they aren’t the pizzeria that has 20 specialty pies because they know what they’re good at and they focus on just that. He believes that keeping it simple is best. What sets Pepperoni’s apart from the competition? What sets his restaurant apart is consistency. By using one vendor, Ferraro Foods, he knows he will get the same product and performance each time. He believes there is great value in the partnership and rapport between an operator and their distributor because it brings familiarity and trust.

Why work with Ferraro Foods? He works with Ferraro Foods because they have all the specific products needed for the pizzeria business. He adds that Ferraro carries the top performing brands of the ingredients he uses such as quality pepperonis and cheeses.
