1981: A LOCAL LEGEND PASSES ON


For some reason, our neighborhood always referred to the restaurant we all knew so well as "Nello and Chick's." However as we venture out of the neighborhood, it is more commonly referred to as "Chick and Nello's." Either way, Nello Rosati and his partner Chick Peroni will go down i local history as two men who really made a mark in the annals of Trenton area restaurants. Today, "Ernie" from the old Homestead in carries on the tradition of Nello and Chick's old establishment.

We ate at Chick and Nello's all the time. When I was married to Joe Bradley. Hung with the mob guys. Remember Pappy? I have photos. Jan
