"A weekly changing sushi buffet, gravy fountain and cheesesteak tartare!"
Do you chuckle snidely at the production values of Steak 'Em Up commercials? Do you snicker when the Not Just Pizza Crew rhetorically asks who's down with NJP (EVERYBODY!) on the small screen? Then you've gotta head to Passyunk Post to peep the promo for the new (fake) Sal Monella's Ristorante by local production house, Woodshop Films. I can't speak for other Italian-American South Phillies and Millies who might be offended by this snark, but I laughed out loud as undershirt-ed hype man, Sal Monella, hawks his weekly changing sushi buffet, gravy fountain and cheesesteak tartare. As Sal says, "You will throw up... your hands with delight!"
