AUG. 21. 1987 true restaurant folks whose dedication is like a string around their finger . . . remin- ding them that the rest aurant life is their real life. This is the case of people like Jerry and Gino Spigno . . . They sold their Cass Lake restaurant in 1985 and paid attention to a little bar they had converted into a larger one . . . Jerry and Gino liked the spot and kept just its four walls . . . completing gutting the entire place . . . and giv- ing it a new face job with nicer-looking walls, pictures, interior designing, new ex- terior landscaping, outside canopy, etc. They call it Peppi's, corner Elizabeth Lake Rd. & M-59, originally opened by them four years ago seating 120 strictly as a bar serving ham- burgers and small grilled items at the renovated In Bet- ween Ban But the restaurant bug finally caught up with them again . . . and a new addition of 2111 square feet has a large clean kitchen only six months old serving seafood, veal, 17 Italian specialties, ribs, prime rib, chicken, -pizza, sandwiches, salads, etc. .. . Plus this there is a special menu attachment . . . On a re- cent visit there, Peppi's had another seven seafood items, specialty veal, pastas and other dishes. The new addition also in- cludes an outdoor patio that seats 50 people . . . Fri. and Sat. nites it is virtually im- possible to get a seat on the patio. When Jerry and Gino arriv- ed here from Italy 20 years ago, both worked for Uncle Jerry Romano at his Albert's Pizzeria on E. 11 Mile .. . When Uncle Jerry sold the restaurant, Gino worked at Ford's four years and brother Jerry at Carmen's, 10 Mile & Gratiot four years . . . Then came their own restaurant on Cass Lake Road. They still owned this other restaurant while driving around looking for a place to sell booze, hamburgers and pizza, with d.j. music for dan- cing ... That's when they spotted the former In Bet- ween Bar which the two bought and gutted . . . What to call it was a question .. . until both decided on naming the bar after their grand- father, Giuseppi . . . and so Peppi's was born. The chef is their cousin, An- thony Romani, former stu- dent at the Culinary Arts School of Italy. 500 more feet is being add- ed . . . for a walk-in cooler .. . There is still d.j. dancing six nights a week . . . Peppi's is closed Sundays . . . Mon. thru Fri., it's 11 a.m. to 2 a.m. and Saturdays 3:30 p.m. to 2 a.m. . . . Kitchen closes at 10 p.m. every night. All wood trim at the restaurant is by Jerry . . . He also built the patio among other things . . . It is a very informal spot with low lights, neon and lively atmosphere. Yes, Jerry and Gino Spigno are back in the restaurant game again.

Dr. Sam Gossman, fishing recently at Mitchell's Bay in Canada, throwing back baby perch because they were too small . . . Who remembers the days of Club Berkley and the original Nor- thwood Inn on Woodward in their heyday . . . when people flocked from everywhere for those succulent sauteed baby perch?
