Chef Simone Falco Says it's OK to Eat Pizza Every Day
Chef Simone Falco is known for his authentic Italian cuisine, and also for fact that he just "Beat Bobby Flay" with his Ossobucco recipe. Falco stops by Cheddar to let us try the winning recipe, and also to tell us about his new fast casual restaurant, SIMÒ Pizza.
Each pizza at SIMÒ will be priced at around $10, with vegetarian and vegan options available. Falco says that the low-carb craze isn't really affecting the pizza business. He believes that done right, with natural ingredients, pizza can be healthy. He eats pizza every day.
Falco also explains why he's getting into the quick-service restaurant space after the success of his Neopolitan eateries, Rossopomodoro in the West Village and Rossopomodoro at Eataly. He's confident enough in the concept that he'll open one new location in February, and a second in the summer.
American businesses that rely on Chinese goods are reacting with muted relief after the U.S. and China agreed to pause their exorbitant tariffs on each other’s products for 90 days. Many companies delayed or canceled orders after President Donald Trump last month put a 145% tariff on items made in China. Importers still face relatively high tariffs, however, as well as uncertainty over what will happen in the coming weeks and months. The temporary truce was announced as retailers and their suppliers are looking to finalize their plans and orders for the holiday shopping season. They’re concerned a mad scramble to get goods onto ships will lead to bottlenecks and increased shipping costs.
