Ristorante
Casa
Vecchia
menu.
Date
1985
Description
[8] p.: col. ill.; 41 X 26 cm.
Notes
Casa
Vecchia
was
created
by
Midas-touch
restaurateurs
Leonce
Picot
and
Al
Kocab.
Picot
remodeled
an
Italian
villa
built
for a
member
of the
Pond
cold
cream
family
in the
mid-1930s.
The
restaurant
had a
prime
location
on the
Intracoastal
,
209
North
Birch
Road
in
Fort
Lauderdale.
The
cuisine
was
Northern
Italian
accented
with
French
classics.
Within
the
elaborate
Italian
villa
were
winding
staircases
and
small
private
dining
rooms
with
glass
ceilings
so
diners
could
see
the
stars.
Again
Picot's
hallmarks
were
much
in
evidence:
fresh
imported
flowers
,
unusual
plants
,
fine
stemmed
crystal
,
exquisite
china
and an
imposing
wine
list.
All
pastas
,
ice
creams
and
sorbets
were
made
on the
premises.
The
restaurant
opened
in
1979
and
closed
in
1994.
