I had the luck and pleasure of having been invited to enjoy some truly rare authentic old school Italian cuisines at these unique NYC establishments:
Il Vagabondo, now closed. It had an indoor bocce court in the dining room.
Tiro a Segno: Still in operation. Known as the “Privatest of all private clubs”. It actually has an indoor shooting range. A typical lunch or dinner takes at least four hours, not because they have slow workers.
