A Night Of Dining Out At A-Mano in Ridgewood

A-Mano Say Mel, how would you like to join me for dinner at A-Mano wrote my friend Keith Sly. He had just sent me a release on A-Mano and knew that I am a foodie. We met recently at the restaurant located at 24 Franklin Avenue where Keith explained some of the foods to me and made sure I met Manager Eric Ryan.

He also introduced me to the chefs behind the counter. Andrew is the taller one with the dark hair and Rob is the shorter one when you look at the pictures of the quaint brick ovens in the background.

Keith ordered two different pizzas plus a salad for us to share. Afterwards, with plenty left over for another meal at home, we had some of their gelato. Eric stood behind the case and dipped small plastic spoons so that we could taste the different flavors and select one that was pleasurable to our palates. Of course they were all pleasurable, but not wanting to keep Eric bending over too much and possibly running out of sample spoons, I selected the pistachio.

Questioning the small elevator that I saw, Keith explained that they had room upstairs for private parties if needed. I planted the seed in his mind that our Paramus Sunrise Rotary Club could use it for one of our International Dinner nights, a Neapolitan affair.
