Get Ready... Here come the Americans!

A few months ago I wrote about my trip to Buffet Da Pepi with Chris and Percy. I am sure that this had only a negligible impact on business for the restaurant. But now, Il Piccolo, our local newspaper tells us, we are preparing for long queues for beer and ham at Da Pepi. This thanks to an article in the New York Times praising Buffet da Pepi.
I might have to pass by later for a ham panino just to see whether the article has had its predicted impact yet.
It's good news for Buffet Da Pepi, and, I suspect, terrible news for the local pig population.
But I have no doubt that the 'smiling gentleman; in the article is now positively grinning.
