Hi, and thank you for choosing

Antonio’s today!

We’ve hit our summer stride and hope you have too. Above is a picture of my wife and I in Boston. This past weekend was Johnny’s orientation at Suffolk University. I spent most of the time telling Johnny how cool his mom and I used to be. Somehow, he remained skeptical.

Regardless, Johnny found his “people”, Lisa and I got to make believe we were kids in Boston again like we did when we were teenagers (and cool). All in all, it was a blast and hopefully a foreshadowing of good things to come…
oh, and the school was great too.

Katherine and Tommy, our oldest and middle children, are living a summer I hope they never forget in Newport. The majority of my family lives in Newport and Kat & Tommy have fully melded into their lives, (which I love). Katherine is working as a hostess at one of our favorite restaurants there; Pasta Beach. (I know that’s not much of a surprise that a place with “pasta” in the name would be one of my favorites).

Tommy is working at Gardiner House. A super luxurious hotel where he is getting great experience as a bar back and living his fantasy life driving around Bentley’s and other cars that we could never afford.
But unfortunately only as the valet.

Lisa, my wife, is in Chicago having the time of her life and relaxing. She’s playing it off as a business trip; but I know that everything can be a vacation if you look at it right; and her time free of me and my endless needs must be a great respite.

Speaking of which, I am absolutely loving my staycation here in Simsbury. The highlights of which are work and sleep. That’s just a joke; I do love where we get to live and am enjoying my free time and the arrival of summer.

     Well, that’s about it for this week, but before I “fare thee well”; I’d like to personally thank you for choosing to spend your time and hard-earned money here at our neighborhood restaurant. We try and support as many local farms and purveyors as we can, and we appreciate you supporting us. Thank you for turning my dream into a reality!

Thank you for your part in our longevity as well! Steven & Co.
