I told Salvatore Scarlata, chef/owner of Vidalia Restaurant, a small, casual restaurant in Lawrenceville, just how serious the competition in our N.J.'s best Italian restaurant showdown has become.
"The guy at the last place played the piano for us,'' I explained to him, in a reference to Filippo Russo, chef/owner of da Filippo in Somerville. "I don't see a piano here. So I think you should go over to Lawrenceville Prep, see if you can borrow a piano, and learn how to play real quick.''
