– PHILADELPHIA EATER – JULY 26, 2012 –
Alicia Santucci brought Northeast Philly’s favorite pizza, Santucci’s, to the Italian Market last year. Even though the neighborhood has a pizza parlor on almost every corner, Santucci’s was a huge hit the first minute the doors swung open. Alicia, along with her father Frank and husband-to-be Blake Barabuscio, have created a destination restaurant that boasts a fantastic Italian menu along with their legendary square pies, and a weekend brunch that’s getting a lot of buzz. Eater chatted up the lovely Alicia about the family business, expansion plans, and a new generation of Santucci’s fans.
