The Cellar Italian Restaurant Made The List...

Surfing through an Everest of Saturday emails, I see Open Table, Inc's report featuring best 10 Central Florida restaurants. Daytona Beach is in Central Florida, so, I am going through the list expecting to see Orlando only on the list, but here I see The Cellar Restaurant, which is in Daytona Beach.

Wow! Congratulations to the owners and employees. And to all of us, Datonians. It is always great to see that Daytona made it to some list.

It is actually an interesting place. The Cellar Italian Restaurant is in the basement of a historic winter home of former US President Warren G. Harding.

The home of President Warren G. Harding was built by his father-in-law Amos H. Kling in 1907. In the 90s it made it into the National Historic Registry.

Restaurant owners/operators Sam & Linda Moggio own the house now. The restaurant is there since 2003. I believe this is the only Daytona Beach area restaurant that made it into Zagat.

“Homemade pasta is a hallmark of this cozy Italian spot”. Oh yes. My grandson Daniel keeps saying their pasta is to die for.

I trust him. He knows, he recently started working there as a waiter.

Ron and Alexandra Seigel - I had experience with restaurants, and usually people, who are insiders, are more critical. Not the case here. And our daniel can cook, actually worked as a line cook in other restaurants, and has a pretty good taste and the sense of the business, and here he holds it very high. So, yes, you are right

William Feela - I believe Internet improved the quality of cooking both in restaurants very significantly.

With the ease of finding any recipe you want, and often plus the video, teaches us how to cook. But if we learn how to cook and do a better job at home, we are becoming more demanding when we dine out, and restaurants are trying to keep up with demand
