A hard-to-get reservation is all the more prized but a reservation
limited to members only seems to be the Philadelphia diner's Holy
Grail. The Palizzi Social Club has been around for almost 100 years
in South Philly but it was after chef Joey Baldino took over from
his late uncle that business really started to boom. Palizzi has
mastered the balance of old-school Italian kitsch and
super-high-quality food and cocktails. Joey is an experienced hand
at great Italian dishes, with a fantastic menu at his Collingswood,
NJ, restaurant, Zeppoli. The menu at Palizzi has a broader Southern
Italian scope, drawing influence from food his Uncle Ernie served
at the Club and what his mother, grandmother and aunts cooked at
home. These recipes, about 70 in total, will make up the bulk of
DINNER AT THE CLUB and include dishes like Sweet Ricotta Pie,
Seafood Fritto Misto, Spaghetti with Crabs and Stromboli. Joey's
food is humble, homey and delicious and the bulk of the recipes
reflect that in their friendly approach, easy processes,
adaptability ("Don't have time to soak dry chickpeas overnight?
Just use canned, like my mom does.") and accessible pantry. If you
can find quality canned tomatoes, some nice Mediterranean anchovies
and a cold-pressed olive oil for finishing, you're halfway there.
And because Palizzi has a lively bar, the book will include a
chapter dedicated to its amaro-centric cocktails, plus a couple
grandma-style liqueurs that readers can make from scratch.
