| mama leone's restaurant new york city: Ten Restaurants That Changed America Paul Freedman, 2016-09-20 Finalist for the IACP Cookbook Award A Washington Post Notable Book of the Year A Smithsonian Best Food Book of the Year Longlisted for the Art of Eating Prize Featuring a new chapter on ten restaurants changing America today, a “fascinating . . . sweep through centuries of food culture” (Washington Post). Combining an historian’s rigor with a food enthusiast’s palate, Paul Freedman’s seminal and highly entertaining Ten Restaurants That Changed America reveals how the history of our restaurants reflects nothing less than the history of America itself. Whether charting the rise of our love affair with Chinese food through San Francisco’s fabled Mandarin; evoking the poignant nostalgia of Howard Johnson’s, the beloved roadside chain that foreshadowed the pandemic of McDonald’s; or chronicling the convivial lunchtime crowd at Schrafft’s, the first dining establishment to cater to women’s tastes, Freedman uses each restaurant to reveal a wider story of race and class, immigration and assimilation. “As much about the contradictions and contrasts in this country as it is about its places to eat” (The New Yorker), Ten Restaurants That Changed America is a “must-read” (Eater) that proves “essential for anyone who cares about where they go to dinner” (Wall Street Journal Magazine). |

| mama leone's restaurant new york city: I Remember... Robert Paul Szekely, 2003-11 I REMEMBER... ...humorous, inspirational and nostalgic stories, dating from my early childhood experiences to the present day. YOUNG CHILDREN have hundreds of tales to tell, most of them humorous, with a special blend of love and emotion. I tried to share some of my favorites from these formative years. THE TEENAGERS are so much more secretive in their storytelling. My parents hadn't a clue as to what was going on in my mind during the mid-1940's. Read about how we all share in the triumphs and the disappointments of our teen years. LOVE, MARRIAGE & CHILDREN go hand in hand, along with trying to build a home, literally, for your family. Raising children is a wonderful experience. This portion of the book contains more humor than I anticipated. Most of us can relate to these sentimental anecdotes. OLD AGE brings with it a multitude of problems, but I wouldn't change it for the world. It also brings grandchildren, who light up my life and make each day a joy. I have attempted to write about all the inspiration they have bestowed upon this humble writer. JOIN ME as we go through many of these precious golden moments. |

| mama leone's restaurant new york city: A Different Path G.A. Mendoza, 2008-09-05 After graduating from the United States Military Academy and being commissioned a 2nd Lieutenant, Neal Creighton spent his first five years in the Army in troop assignments in the United States and in Germany. When his Armored Cavalry Regiment returned to the United States in the fall of 1957, they found themselves at Fort Knox, Kentucky. It is at this point that the author begins his story of a 26-year period covered in the pages of this book. At Fort Knox, he meets Jo Ann Hicks, an employee of the U.S. Army Armored School. They become engaged three months after meeting. The marriage ceremony takes place on August 1st, 1958, at Jo Anns familys church. After a month long honeymoon Neal and Jo Ann return to Fort Knox where they live in their first government supplied family quarters, Jo Ann goes back to her job, and Neal becomes a student for a nine months long class at the Armored School. In the chapter on their time at Fort Knox, the author describes the life style of the typical young Army family living on a military post in the 1950s. Not long into the school year, they are told they will be going to Spain for a year where Neal will study Spanish in preparation for then returning to West Point where he will teach the language. Once in Spain, both Creightons initially attend a university in north Spain. In the fall, they return to Madrid where Neal continues as a student and Jo Ann takes a job with a U.S. Central Intelligence Agency office. During the year, they travel extensively throughout Spain and Portugal. At the end of their time in Spain, they make a month long trip beginning in North Africa, passing through France, Italy, Austria and both East and West Germany. From 1960 to 1963, Neal has his tour as a member of the Military Academy faculty. The Superintendent of the Academy is Major General William Westmoreland and Neal becomes one of Westmorelands tennis playing partners. Jo Ann returns to work as a government employee. However, after a year, she becomes pregnant and leaves the workforce. Unfortunately, she loses the baby while Neal is traveling in Mexico. After she recovers, the Creightons decide to adopt. Shortly before their three years at West Point are up, they succeed in adopting a six-week old daughter whom they name Linda. Several months later, they are informed that their next assignment will be to the Dominican Republic where Neal will be tasked with helping the Dominicans start a Military Academy. Not long before they depart, Jo Ann learns she is once again pregnant. Arriving in the Dominican Republic in the summer of 1963, the Creightons quickly find a house to rent and Neal begins his work. At this time, the Dominican Republic is trying to recover from decades of domination of dictator Raphael Trujillo, who had been assassinated in 1961. Neal has an early meeting with Dominican President Juan Bosch. In September, a worried Bosch consults Neal about the situation at San Isidro where the Academy is located. Shortly after that, Bosch is overthrown by Neals Dominican boss. The U.S. breaks relations with the new Dominican Government and orders all its diplomats and military out of the country. Before this evacuation takes place, Neal becomes seriously ill and is evacuated to the U.S. Army hospital in Puerto Rico. Jo Ann accompanies Neal because of the seriousness of his illness. Meanwhile, back in the Dominican Republic, the Americans are evacuated by boat, leaving little nine months old Linda in the Creighton house in Santo Domingo alone with the two maids. Jo Ann returns to reclaim her daughternow not an easy process. Finally, Linda and Jo Ann do get aboard a plane for Puerto Rico where they meet Puerto Rican baseball legend Roberto Clementewho then helps the Creightons while they remain in San Juan. The next stop for the Creightons is the Panama Canal Zone. They are soon caught up in the serious anti-US riots of January 9, 1964 and are lucky to escape without injury. At work, Ne |

| mama leone's restaurant new york city: To Be a Soldier Julian M. Olejniczak, 2015-02-06 West Point is a geographical location that was of critical importance during the Revolutionary War, the site of our nations first military academy, and the commissioning source of thousands of Army, Army Air Corps, Air Force, and even some Navy and Marine Corps officers who have led our nations young men, and now women, in battle since the Academys founding on March 16, 1802 by President Thomas Jefferson. This volume contains a very selective military history of the United States that focuses on the Revolutionary War and the contributions of West Point graduates to subsequent wars, but with an emphasis on some of the lesser known persons and events of the past 250 years or so. It also touches upon many of the customs and traditions of the West Point experience. Many chapters include the stories of unsung or forgotten heroes and heroines. Men like John Stark, Daniel Morgan, Eleazer Derby Wood, Benjamin L.E. Bonneville, Oliver Otis Howard, Henry Ossian Flipper, Calvin Pearl Titus, Charles Young, Norman D. Cota, and Donald W. Holleder plus women like the Warner sisters, Laura Walker, and Emily Perez. One of the final chapters, however, deals within the kindest sense of the terma few rogues of West Point like Edgar Allan Poe, James McNeil Whistler, Hugh S. Johnson, and The Mole. |

| mama leone's restaurant new york city: From Many We Are One Ferdinand Metz, 2023-12-08 From Many We Are One reveals the never-before told story of the rebirth and globalization of American Cuisine, as influenced by iconic restaurants, shaped by passionate individuals and enriched by education. A journey through ground-breaking periods illustrates the roller-coaster development of cooking in America. The book details historic events, food and wine competitions and the California food revolution, whose combined energies fueled this movement and catapulted American food and wines to the top of global prominence. Seminal events hosting the Queen of England and the Hyde Park Summit with Presidents Clinton and Boris Yeltsin, serve to elevate American cuisine to center stage. As President of the Culinary Institute of America I was fortunate to not only observe, but to actively participate in the education and nurturing of American chefs as evidenced by the legions of industry-leading CIA graduates. While cooking at Le Pavillon, at the time the best restaurant in America, I experienced the highest level of excellence, which shaped and dominated my emerging philosophy and appreciation of food and hospitality all shared in this book. A critical look at the industry recollects the impact of fast food, the positive professionalization of chefs, while questioning the lamentable status and struggles of women and African American chefs and the media’s reluctance to recognize their contributions to American cuisine. New emerging culinary concepts like Molecular, Fusion and Nouvelle cuisine are debated for their lasting and realistic impact on cooking. Lastly, the legacy of food in America is scrutinized for its contributions to gustatory benefits and their contrasting effects on the status on public health. |

| mama leone's restaurant new york city: Relentless Tim Schum, 2022-12-01 Soccer players may get all the glory, but behind every great player is a great coach. And behind every great coach today stands a cadre of mentors who dedicated decades to championing soccer's long climb from obscurity to become one of the major sports in America. It was an uphill battle, fought persistently and creatively to overcome a public perception of soccer as foreign, aloof, snobby, or simply odd. This is a story of individual and collective action, of coaches coming together to improve the sport and expand its reach. The adaptation and sharing of improved coaching methodologies has resulted in improved play on the field such that today American players (and coaches to some degree) are having an impact not just nationally, but internationally. Because of the determined and insistent efforts of the US soccer coaching community, soccer is now perceived as a rigorous, athletic pursuit. In addition to the stories found in this book are more than 50 QR codes that provide bonus information on the coaches and their careers. Relentless tells the landmark and previously untold stories of resolute coaches, their love of the game, and how they transformed the sport in the United States. |

| mama leone's restaurant new york city: The Girl Who Came Through Vickery Gate James A. Plessinger, Diane F. Colby, 2017-01-23 The Girl Who Came through Vickery Gate is a true story of a rare romance that travels through a couples love and incredible life beginning from the first moment Dottie Williamson enters the gate at Kings Point Academy and meets Jim Plessinger until her last breath, when she passes through another gate. Jim and Dottie were soul mates and were happily married for almost sixty-one years. Dottie comes to the United States Merchant Marine Academy in New York to meet Jim on a blind date put in motion by a chance meeting of their fathers and attend the Saturday activities consisting of a football game, tea, and dance on October 30, 1948. When Dottie walks through Vickery Gate, Jim is done for. She saw me there, so she came up and put her right hand up and said, Im Dottie. I put my hand out and I held her hand. I looked in her eyes and said to myself, I will never, ever let go of this hand in this world and the next. I was absolutely smitten, just blown away. So much so that on that first date, the skinny young man summoned the nerve to give Dottie a lingering kiss, profess his love, and propose marriage during the last dance. Stunned, she ran. I didnt know where I was, Jim said, spending the next few days in a heartbroken stupor. I had poured out my heart. But then there came a letter from Mount Ida College, where Dottie was studying, to say that she had a wonderful time and would very much like to see him. The poor Jim met Dotties wealthy family and was surprised when she happily drove to his familys flat to meet his parents. Dating right up until Jims graduation from Kings Point, they married nine days after on December 22, 1951. This relationship survives Jim spending a year at sea; becoming a Naval Officer; unemployment; moving; the loss of their first child, Susan; having two other daughters Diane and Sally; and becoming a lawyer at almost forty years old in Connecticut and later on in California. Dottie, who never failed to get a job within an hour, managed to be a doting mother, charming hostess, and eventually a real estate agent. Then that shattering day comes. Dottie dies in Jims arms, leaving this world here on earth from complications of Alzheimers disease. |

| mama leone's restaurant new york city: Rewriting the Soul Ian Hacking, 1998-08-03 Twenty-five years ago one could list by name the tiny number of multiple personalities recorded in the history of Western medicine, but today hundreds of people receive treatment for dissociative disorders in every sizable town in North America. Clinicians, backed by a grassroots movement of patients and therapists, find child sexual abuse to be the primary cause of the illness, while critics accuse the MPD community of fostering false memories of childhood trauma. Here the distinguished philosopher Ian Hacking uses the MPD epidemic and its links with the contemporary concept of child abuse to scrutinize today's moral and political climate, especially our power struggles about memory and our efforts to cope with psychological injuries. What is it like to suffer from multiple personality? Most diagnosed patients are women: why does gender matter? How does defining an illness affect the behavior of those who suffer from it? And, more generally, how do systems of knowledge about kinds of people interact with the people who are known about? Answering these and similar questions, Hacking explores the development of the modern multiple personality movement. He then turns to a fascinating series of historical vignettes about an earlier wave of multiples, people who were diagnosed as new ways of thinking about memory emerged, particularly in France, toward the end of the nineteenth century. Fervently occupied with the study of hypnotism, hysteria, sleepwalking, and fugue, scientists of this period aimed to take the soul away from the religious sphere. What better way to do this than to make memory a surrogate for the soul and then subject it to empirical investigation? Made possible by these nineteenth-century developments, the current outbreak of dissociative disorders is embedded in new political settings. Rewriting the Soul concludes with a powerful analysis linking historical and contemporary material in a fresh contribution to the archaeology of knowledge. As Foucault once identified a politics that centers on the body and another that classifies and organizes the human population, Hacking has now provided a masterful description of the politics of memory : the scientizing of the soul and the wounds it can receive. |
| mama leone's restaurant new york city: Good Stock Sanford D'Amato, 2013-10-21 Good Stock is the story of Sanford Sandy D'Amato's journey from young Italian kid who loved to cook to unknown culinary student with a passion for classical French cuisine to one of the most respected chefs and restaurateurs in the country. Featuring more than 80 recipes and full-color photography throughout, Good Stock weaves together memoir and cookbook in an beautiful and engaging package. Sanford, the restaurant D'Amato opened in 1989 and sold to his longtime chef de cuisine in December 2012, has been one of the highest-rated restaurants in America over the past 20 years, earning accolades from Bon Appétit, Gourmet, Food & Wine, Esquire, Wine Spectator, Zagat Guide, and the James Beard Foundation. D'Amato has cooked for the Dalai Lama and the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympics, and was one of 12 chefs chosen by Julia Child herself to cook for her 80th birthday celebration. The story of Sanford and Sandy D'Amato is in part the story of America's embrace of fine dining and its acceptance of chefs as master craftsmen. Over the past quarter century, America has seen a rise in the prominence of celebrity chefs, to the extent that it's difficult to remember a time when becoming a chef was considered a backup plan more than a craft. That transformation began in the 1970s, right around when Sanford D'Amato was studying at the fabled Culinary Institute of America. This was a time when American cooks were by and large being frozen out by French chefs who didn't believe the Americans had what it took to create great cuisine. D'Amato, through persistence, skill, and the help of his mentor, Chef Peter Von Erp, became the first American cook at Le Veau d'Or and worked under Chef Roland Chenus through the groundbreaking opening of Le Chantilly. Soon the heyday of classic French cuisine began to waned, as rising chefs like D'Amato began leading the spread New American dining. To D'Amato, though, the Midwest always signified home. His culinary inventiveness was inspired in pIllustrations by his childhood home, located above his grandparents' grocery store on the lower east side of Milwaukee. It was a small apartment constantly filled with the sights of carefully prepared delicacies, the smells of rich foods on the simmer, and the many tastes of generations-old Italian recipes. Drawing on this influence, as well as his rigorous training in classic French technique, D'Amato eventually opened Sanford in the same space his grandparents' grocery store occupied. In telling his story, D'Amato studs his narrative with 80 of his favorite recipes. The book features both personal photos from his background and career as well as beautiful images of finished recipes. Readers of Good Stock will come to believe, as D'Amato does, that to create great food, it doesn't matter if you're preparing a grilled hot dog or pan-roasted monkfish-- what matters is that you treat all dishes with equal love, soul, and respect, and try to elevate each dish to its ultimate level of flavor. Good Stock combines Midwestern charm with international appeal as the perfect book for aspiring chefs, culinary students, and foodies everywhere. |

| mama leone's restaurant new york city: New York Sports Stephen Norwood, 2018-06-01 New York has long been both America’s leading cultural center and its sports capital, with far more championship teams, intracity World Series, and major prizefights than any other city. Pro football’s “Greatest Game Ever Played” took place in New York, along with what was arguably history’s most significant boxing match, the 1938 title bout between Joe Louis and Max Schmeling. As the nation’s most crowded city, basketball proved to be an ideal sport, and for many years it was the site of the country’s most prestigious college basketball tournament. New York boasts storied stadiums, arenas, and gymnasiums and is the home of one of the world’s two leading marathons as well as the Belmont Stakes, the third event in horse racing’s Triple Crown. New York sportswriters also wield national influence and have done much to connect sports to larger social and cultural issues, and the vitality and distinctiveness of New York’s street games, its ethnic institutions, and its sports-centered restaurants and drinking establishments all contribute to the city’s uniqueness. New York Sports collects the work of fourteen leading sport historians, providing new insight into the social and cultural history of America’s major metropolis and of the United States.

Hiltner, James Robert Walker, 2022-04 2023 SABR Baseball Research Award A Booklist Top 10 Sports & Recreation Book Finalist for the 2023 Seymour Medal Finalist for the 2022 CASEY Award Born and raised in rural Mississippi and the even balmier climes of central Florida, Red Barber, at the age of thirty-two, became one of New York City's most influential citizens as the play-by-play announcer for the Brooklyn Dodgers. When he arrived in 1939, Barber brought the down-home drawl and idioms of his southern roots to the borough, where residents said they could walk down any street and never miss a pitch because his voice wafted out of every window and every passing car. From his colorful expressions like rhubarb and sitting in the catbird seat to his vivid use of similes--a close game was tighter than a new pair of shoes on a rainy day--Barber's influence on his contemporaries and the many generations of broadcasters who followed him cannot be overstated. But behind all the base hits, balls, and strikes lies a compelling story that dramatizes the shifting expectations and roles of a public figure--the sports broadcaster--as he adapted to complex cultural changes throughout the course of twentieth-century American life. Red Barber follows the trajectory of Barber's long career from radio and television play-by-play man for the Cincinnati Reds, Brooklyn Dodgers, and New York Yankees to his work calling college and professional football games, his nine-year tenure as director of sports for CBS Radio, and his second acts as an Episcopal lay reader, sportswriter, and weekly guest with Bob Edwards on NPR's Morning Edition. This talented public figure was also a private man committed to rigorous self-examination and willing to evolve and grow under the influence of changing times. When the Dodgers first signed Jackie Robinson and smashed the color barrier in Major League Baseball, Barber struggled to overcome the racism he had absorbed from his culture as a child. But after observing the vicious abuse Robinson endured from opposing fans, Barber became an ardent supporter of him and the many Black players who followed. Barber was also bothered deeply by the strains that his single-minded careerism imposed on his family. He was challenged to navigate longtime family tensions after his only child, Sarah, came out as a lesbian. And his primary role during the later years of his life was caretaking for his wife, Lylah, during her decline from Alzheimer's disease, at a time when the ailment was something many families concealed. Ultimately Red Barber traces the career of a true radio and television pioneer who was committed to the civic responsibility of mass media. Barber firmly believed the most important role of a broadcaster was telling the truth and promoting public well-being. |
