Grano and Roberto Martella

While taking a break from baking and trying out new blueberry recipes- yes,( if the recipe is good I will include it on the blog), I am checking for ideas for the blog.

Roberto Martella is someone we had the pleasure of meeting at his restaurant Grano. This restaurant is special. It is not just a place to eat but Martella has created a place to learn Italian- language classes, learn about great wines especially Italian at wine tasting and opportunities to exchange ideas at the various forums he has instituted. What a wonderful place he has created.

Martella was awarded the Jane Jacobs award several years ago. This was a worthy recognition of the contribution he is making in this city.


We need more people like this who make places a wonderful and exciting place to live. Hope that your city has people like this as well.
