Bruno Serato, Celebrity Chef

Bruno Serato, owner of the Anaheim White House Restaurant and founder of
Caterina's Club, feeds literally thousands of children and families every day, and he's
raising money so his Caterina's foundation can continue feeding literally thousands
every day who would otherwise go hungry. And he joins us today to talk about it.
Just last week, SoCal powerhouse radio station #KFIam640 (where my husband hosts
the #JohnKobyltShow), teamed up with Bruno, Smart & Final, Wendy's, and De Cecco
pasta to raise money and bunches of pasta and sauce so Bruno could continue doing
what he does best - feeding hungry people. And the mission has been affectionately
called #Pastathon.

Already, they've raised close to $1-million dollars, and the campaign is still going, and
he'll talk about how you can help. Now that's A LOT of Pasta!
Bruno has become a friend over the years, and many of us call him a saint. His
generosity was inspired by his mom, Caterina, who gave him the inspiration to feed
hungry children in nearby Anaheim. He took the challenge, and so many years later,
he’s been recognized by Time Magazine, CNN Heros, the Pope, and others around the
globe.

We will talk with Bruno about his humble beginnings before moving to the United
States, where his restaurant quickly became a fixture in Southern California. But he’s
faced plenty of tough times, too, like when his restaurant burned to the ground a few
years ago, and his first thought was, “how will I feed the children.” He rebuilt, and came
back stronger than ever.

Please join me in welcoming Bruno Serato on all audio and video platforms of
#DeborahKobyltLIVE, #LittleItalyPodcast, and our #LittleItalyOfLAPodcast. I'm your
host, #DeborahZaraKobylt, and I thank you for joining me.
