Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Touching stories
Sharing intimate memories of beloved family memories and times in Brooklyn, stories are intertwined with mouth-watering receipes. This book is touching and will warm your heart, as will the dishes contained within.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Growing Up with Vinnie
I grew up with Vinnie, I lived on Stockholm Btw Wyckoff and Irving my grandfather from Menfi was a shoemaker on Wyckoff across from Wyckoff Heights Hospital. We both went to St Joseph's and belonged to the sea-cadets. Growing up Sicilian brought back so many memories reading his book, have never read a Thousand and One Nights still trying to get that one. Vincent will be missed, he was such a great writer and actor.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Authentic NYC Italian-Sicilian Cookbook
Reading this book brings back alot of memories of growing up in an Italian family from NYC. We are from Staten Island but wherever us Italians go we bring our unique and loved culture-especially food. And this book not only has Authentic recipes but Authentic stories about growing up in the very tight-knit italian community. This book is a must read/buy for all Italian Americans, especially the youth who are being driven away, daily, by the disgusting MTV generation. Wheather you are an experienced cook or not, Italian or Sicilian just buy this book and smile all the way through, and then at the end wish for more. And then you will, if your lucky enough, start to recall your own Italian-American experience. By the way this is not your typical "MERIGAN" Italian cookbook It is the real deal!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Good Old Days
I grew up in this neighborhood during the time he speaks about, and it was exactly as he describes it. The S.A.C.'s, the gangs, the feasts, the recipes, the stores on Knickerbocker Avenue, the way our family members spoke - I still talk Brooklynese! It's a great book. Brings back so many memories.....if you had any connection to this Bushwick neighborhood during the 50's and 60's, you must read this book.
