Parrott in the dining. room of their new Gusto di Quattro restaurant in North
Vancouver City's Lower Lonsdale area.

Corsi Trattoria, the restaurant

he and brother Mario’
launched in 1981.°. |.

Ic was the duo's first
restaurant ownership venture

. and it was a winner right out
“Sof the gates:

* There would be | many:

. However as anybody who
s a member of one knows:

complex entities.”

In 1994, Antonio rolled

> the dice and struck out on his

own.. He. opened Quattro
(2611 West Fourth Ave., 734-
4444) in Vancouver.

‘It was another. family

’ affair. This‘ time, however, it

was: Antonio's. Son Patrick
and wife Edith, both integral

parts-of the Quattro. opera-

tion, «and ~ daughter Eda,
though not. in, the dining

~trade, adding’ ‘support on

other fronts.

Quattro, like the Trattoria —

before it, was an immediate
hit. .
Two years later Antonio

added Quattro at the Pinnacle’

in Whistler. It, too, has flour-

‘ished.
