Everywhere I go I run into people who were Hizzoner's customers. Invariably they tell me how much they miss the food, the people and the good feelings they had. Many have asked for recipes or suggested that I do a cookbook. So, I decided to do the best of both, hence this website. Here you will find all the things you loved most about Hizzoner's and some of my favorites too. Come, taste and remember.

Feta Pine Nut Spread

| Print |

This spread is one of the best party spreads ever. It is easy to make and your guests will think you hired a caterer. We served it for catered parties and everyone went crazy for it.

It's creamy and chunky and cheesey and sun dried tomatoey.   What's not to like!
