Dinner With Friends At Giuseppe’s Phoenix AZ

Last night we went to Giuseppe’s with Jim and Bobby Chapman.  Giuseppe's is another Diners, Drive-in and Dives.  It’s a small restaurant with only a dozen tables located in a strip mall in Phoenix.

Mike really likes his Italian food.  We spent a month in Italy a few years ago and fell in love with the cuisine.  I even  learned to cook a few Italian dishes myself, very simple ones.

Mikes Veal Osso Boco, and it tasted even better then it looks.  All our meals were fabulous.

The owner chef Richard Bock made his rounds and stopped at the tables to visit with the diners.

Richard studied cooking in Italy for 9 years while performing a Principal Cellist in Maggio Musicale Florentino Orchestra.  Maggio Musicale is the most famous theater in Italy.  He now plays with the Phoenix Symphony and has been the Principal Cellist for 24 seasons. 

A few weeks ago we stopped in for lunch with Ken and Lee Ann.  Giuseppe’s is one of the friendliest places we have eaten.  Everyone wants to make you fell comfortable, and as said before the food is outstanding.
