Everybody Can Cook Italian!

The daughter of the famous "Mama Celeste" Lizio of pizza fame-but never overshadowed by her mom-Clara Lizio Melchiorre brought sophistication, personalization, and incredible flavor to every dish she touched. In the 1980s she opened her namesake restaurant, which has become a Chicago-area legend. For many years, the restaurant was her home away from home. Her customers were her family.

Just as this book was being published, the author passed away peacefully at the age of eighty-two. It was her lifelong goal to publish her recipes and techniques. She dreamed of passing on her love of cooking to as many people as she could.

Clara's opened on March 13, 1987. Clara was in the kitchen, her husband Rudy Sr. at the bar and their four children (Michelle, Anthony, Rudy Jr. and Mark) learning the recipes and traditions just as their mother and grandmother before them. And just like her mother Celeste, people came from far and wide to enjoy Clara's wonderful creations.

On November 19, 2013, Clara's moved to its current location at 6550 S. Rt. 53, Woodridge, IL, now under the watchful eye of the next generation. Rudy Jr, along with his wife Dawn and three children (Ersilia, Michael Anthony and Rudy III), carry on the traditions and recipes of Celeste and Clara.
