COMPLETE ARRAY OF DELICIOUS HOME-MADE FOOD DAILY FOR CARRY-OUT, DINE N & CATERING
for events casual to elegant,
detailed in all aspects, with
party-planning from invitations
to flowers to food and wine
selection.
Most of the food at Cafe
Cortina, distinctly Italian, is
from recipes of the Tonon fam-
ily, whose background is pure
Italian . . . It is so wonderful to
see that the loss of Adriano has
not held Rina from continuing
to do what they both loved so
much.
"My focus," says Rina, "is and
always will be on the food and
service. I put myself in the cus-
tomer's position. I enjoy having
great food and wine together
with professional service. This
will always keep people coming
back to a restaurant, whether
it is ours or someone else's."
When a restaurant is loved
so much by its owner and em-
ployees, nothing but good can
be a result . . . Cafe Cortina has
this, with adoration also corn-
ing from customers.
Highly successful has been
its series of regional Italian din-
ners that has customers walk-
ing out the door at evening's end
with a reservation for the next
one ... Coming up is Cafe Corti-
na's "Carnevale A Venezia," 7
p.m. Feb. 9 . . . $48 per person.
Romantic Cafe Cortina . . . it
has received this rating as num-
ber one . . . is so much more
than just a pretty place with ex-
cellent food and service . . . It

alive.
has heart . . . and a love for cus-
tomer-pleasing that Rina and
Adrian() Tonon strived for and
attained with full measure.
The combination of Rina,
their son, Adrian, and Paul, to-
gether with a fine staff of
employees, are upholding an ex-
cellent way of fine Italian din-
ing that Adriano worked and
lived for . . . You can bet they
won't let him down in its con-
tinuance.

served with no-fat yogurt . . . It's

FORMER CUSTOMER at
London Chop House who had
his caricature done by Hy Vogel
called to say hello . . . Hy told
him that he now did paintings
of clowns and the fellow came
to see them . . . buying four
clown paintings to give as gifts
on a recent trip to China .. .
When the businessman re-
turned, Hy asked how they
liked the clowns . . . The former
Chop House customer said he'll
never know ... Chinese custom
is never to open a gift in front of
the person giving it.
Hy has hundreds of clown
paintings and is willing to work
out an exhibit with a Jewish
charitable organization, with
the group getting a portion of
the proceeds . . . He can be
reached at 353-8082.
