Mama Campisi with a side of crooner

Mark and I accidentally stumbled (sort of) into Mama Campisi's on the Hill Saturday night. We had another place in mind for dinner (the pizza place next to Chava's) but couldn't find a close enough spot to park. We finally found a spot further away, got out of the car, realized it was very cold, saw Mama's on the corner, and the rest is history. We weren't sorry. It turned out to be a fun evening. I can honestly say I've never been met at the door before by a crooner with a tiny rose. That's what happened at Mama Campisi's Saturday night. The crooner (they call him GB) sings Frank, Dean and Tony. The songs My Way, What Kind of Fool, Fly Me to the Moon, All of Me, Thats Amore, are just a few of the 40's, 50's and 60's hits he sings. Truth be told GB was a bit of a ham and after the third or fourth time crooning at our table became a bit of an annoyance but all in all he was a hoot and a lot of unexpected fun on a cold Saturday night on the Hill.
