It started with a romance in the warm Italian south. It led to the heights of success in Britain. It's been a journey through both despair and elation, with fate lending a hand along the way. The Salvo's story is like no other. It's been a story of singing chefs and secret recipes shielded from prying eyes, of epic continental journeys in an old Ford and smoke-filled gambling dens, of humble beginnings and the bright lights of television stardom. Beneath it all is a passion for good food which has made Salvo's a national landmark. In a book which will delight lovers of Italian food, John and Gip Dammone tell their fascinating story - and pass on generations of know-how in the shape of some beautifully-illustrated favourite recipes.
