What does the coronavirus pandemic mean for family-owned fine dining establishments?
Napoli 2 owner Ande Pietoso and his family at Café Napoli and Bar Napoli have spent decades perfecting the art of consistently delighting guests with wonderful meals and impeccable service in a refined, inviting atmosphere. With dining rooms closed across the state, they had to move quickly and thoughtfully to keep serving their community.
We asked Ande to share his story, from growing up polishing silverware in his parents' Clayton restaurant, to opening Napoli 2 in Town and Country, to the challenges and triumphs of the last few months.
Hear what it was like crafting a whole new take-home Napoli experience, how the community has responded with support, and what the future holds for family-owned fine dining.
