Thanks for this great article! Cathy is an inspiration and I’m so proud of her! My mom worked with her at Genoa, years ago.🥰I especially loved your last question, connecting her two cuisines. 💕

Love this story, getting insight into the evolving concept of an "Italian restaurant" over 40 years in a foodie place in the US is fascinating!

This recipe looks like it could go into Bill’s and my regular rotation. We love olives in pasta dishes!

Such an interesting interview--a great story. A delicious way to start a Sunday. Thank you! Wish I didn't live all the way across the country from Portland.
