Hello!

Welcome to The Epic! I am launching this blog as a manifesto for and a guide to living well. The title and motto of the blog are taken from the Epicureans, at least some of whom believed in the notion that not one minute of the future was guaranteed to them and that as a result they had the duty to live life to its fullest every moment.

I believe in discovering fun and pleasurable things wherever I find myself each day and I am told I have a knack for unearthing them. My hope is that by sharing in my pleasures and some of my ways of finding them you will begin to collect all the riches that lie in the moments of your life. They are there. Take them! All our lives should be.....Epic.

Villa Camillo, NYC

Some time ago, I posted an epicurean exploration of New York based upon a 1952 copy of Gourmet magazine that had come into my hands.

Not long ago, a nice gentleman sent me an email about any background information I had in mentioning Villa Camillo in that post.  He was interested because his grandfather owned the restaurant.

At the time, I could not find the article I had used and I replied that I would keep looking.  I then promptly lost his email address.  I then, of course, found the article.

If the fellow should read this and will send me an email, I can now send him a scan of the article on Villa Camillo.  Thanks!

Hi, I was also interested in this restaurant as it shows up in my 'Esquire Party Book' from 1965. The cannelloni recipe is listed. I was curious where this restaurant was in NYC and when it closed. Any info would be greatly appreciated! Cheers, Amy
