CUE some zesty accor-

Faedo is vn the bill
tonight.

We are in for an upscale
Italian dining experience La
Cucina-style.

And style is the key
word.

It is what makes Tiberio
Faedo and his La Cucina
restaurant tick.

The two have been tick-
ing at the casily missed
Marine Drive location since
late 1979.

And we necd all the style
we can get: this is a family
affair, with mother at the
helm.

_ Prepare to sit up straight,
watch your manners and lis-
ten.

I'll listen to mother.

The rest of you might
