Munchies: Frankies Spuntino

  • Опубликовано: 26 сен 2024
  • We traveled to Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn, to meet the classically trained mystic meatballerinos behind the Frankies Spuntino empire. We'll say here and now that chef/owners Frank Falcinelli and Frank Castronovo are two of the kindest, most easygoing gents around, and that if by some insane and sad chance you don't know their food or faces by now, we're pretty proud to be the ones making introductions.

    I feel for these guys. Similar to David Chang, they owe almost all of their culinary success on one dish. Chang has his pork belly bun and the Frankies have their meatballs.

    These have been some of the only people on munchies that didn't feel weird or awkward with their 'friends' going out and eating around. Could be better editing but this episode was actually enjoyable. How some people are hating on it i don't know.

    that oil has to be hotter that 110-120 degrees. dude's blazed

    • @LawGone1
      @LawGone1 10 лет назад +17

      you're missing the point D.C. whether he meant that or not, my point is he's blazed. he's specifically talking about the oil temp when he says "keep it like at 110-120". He's blazed, I'm blazed, and you better be blazed.

      LawGone1 True, but could he be talking about in Celsius, but yes, he is most definitely blazed.

    • @aaroncruz5854
      @aaroncruz5854 7 лет назад

      Micmastaz, 110°C would be 230°F. He definitely is not "reffer"-ing to celcius.

      @alexanders9904 10 лет назад +7

      jarrgeez i don't think they're hipsters insofar as they're not part of a new-age apathetic accountability-dodging insincere clique of trendsetters. These guys have been around for a while and are in their late 40-s... and they do indeed know how to cook, they are classically trained (as is mentioned) whether or not you personally like the look of what they're putting out is another matter.

    @conceptual0theorist 11 лет назад

    ok well if you are being serious, then a piece of solid advice, is that you be yourself, and be happy within yourself, the truth is, happiness is a mindset or state of mind that takes practice to cement within. If you are happy, and do things that you enjoy you will gravitate to people who do the same, if you are always trying to fit in, you can never be yourself. Aim to have fun, not to fit in for the sake of it. If you are young, it's natural. If you're older, spend more time alone for a bit.
