NYC Restaurant Innovators Sponsored By Heineken: Mario Carbone, Rich Torrisi, And Jeff Zalaznick, Michelin Meets Mulberry Street

[The walls inside Torrisi lined with old school Italian products] Can you tell me about all of this stuff on the wall? It’s obviously some sort of homage to where you came from? Rich: “It’s homage to the perfect deli shelves we always saw in those old photos.” Mario: “We wanted to put things that we never would use, but that we ate growing up.” Rich: “Yes, for instance, we would never serve that Italian ice, but we make our own version.” Mario: “I mean I love all of the stuff on these shelves.”
