Have You had Big Daddy's Tommy Salad Yet?
Or Our Fabulous Lamb Chops?
Welcome to the best Greek food this
grette, $15.95 ... and whitefish
(40 pounds) baked with Italian
bread crumbs, $12.95.
Chicken, too, is quite popular
at Colangelo's ... with about 200
pounds of the seven established
favorites sold weekly.
Colangelo's also makes its own
desserts, including a delicious
tiramisu ... Creamy spumoni is
brought in a large, heavy
stemmed glass.
Even the wine list prices have
been kept down. You can get a
glass of red Columbia Crest mer-
lot for $4.95, or Bollini merlot
$3.95 ... The wonderful Kendall
Jackson white chardonnay is
$5.95, and Pinot Grigio Pighin,
estate bottled, just $4.50.
Good Italian red wines range
from $2.95 for Montepulociano,
Casal Thaulero, to Spalletti chi-
anti, $3.95, among others.
From our standby beginning
when dining Italian ... extra vir-
gin olive oil mixed with freshly
crushed garlic cloves for dipping
the Italian bread ... to the mine-
strone soup and veal piccata
made with lemon sauce and top-
ping of artichokes (tender enough
to cut with a fork), Colangelo's as
a dining experience was a pleas-
ant culinary adventure.
A lot of the dishes are prepared
the old-fashioned Italian way ...
Like Manicotti Florentine, which
is a crepe, not a noodle, stuffed
with spinach and ricotta cheese.
Colangelo's is
starting to get that
repeat business.
As the weeks begin drifting by,
it is apparent that Colangelo's in
Pontiac is making people aware
of its existence ... with come-back
satisfaction.
You wouldn't expect any less
from the son of Mark
"Schmaltzy" Colangelo and Rose
Larco Colangelo.
CONGRATS ... to Debbie and
Alan Hitsky, Jewish News asso-
ciate editor ... on their 25th an-

Ray, 54, and Joe, 45, and daugh-
ter, Anne Galido, 51 ... All four
birthday candle blowings-out
were celebrated within a week.
PIZZA SURPRISES are in
the kosher rounders by the new
Jerusalem Kosher Pizza carry-
out, Southfield Road, about a
half-block north of 10 Mile.
The pizzas are better than
many others ... kosher or
nonkosher.
Specialties like the potato
pizza, with slices of potato,
cheese, red onion, olive oil and
rosemary, are receiving excep-
tional raves ... Same for the
supreme with cheese, mush-
room, green pepper, onion, black
olives, green olives, tomato (and,
on request only, red pepper).
The calzones made by Jeru-
salem Pizza (pizza, cheese and
Greek) also join the winner circle.
