      Yes. I hope he understands how it goes once you become extremely well known. Hes at the point where hes going to have a small minority of haters. I dont care who you are, you can be mother Teresa lol. Youre going to have hundreds or maybe even a thousand loud haters. They come in many forms and ive spotted them coming at him like "oh i thought you were religious why'd you do blah blah blah?" Or "this faith act is a lie!". They come across as though they are morally righteous and superior but the truth is they're just miserable or threatened by the fact that here's a former highly ranked mobster whos somehow managed to turn his life, mind and heart around. Lol they havnt been through a fraction of what Michael's been through and they want to feel better about themselves never having either had to or been able to turn there lives around by taking shots at him.

      Since Michael is a conservative and a Trump supporter, I guarantee, radical leftist, Robert De Niro, would never give him the time of day and would probably have some choice words to share with him as he does with anyone that is right of center. However, I bet ya anything that being the stand up guy he is, Michael would treat De Niro with the utmost of respect, despite De Niro’s leftist ideology and hateful rhetoric.
      The fact is, Michael Franzese has become a truly compassionate and tolerant man through his Christian conversion. Radical leftists and Hollywood elitists could learn a lot from guys like Mr. Franzese, but I wouldn’t hold my breath.

    Walking through the kitchen is always a cool experience. The most memorable was when I was a guest in China. I walked up fish tank lined stairs, through kitchens into a back dining area. I felt like I was in a movie.
    I was a guest worker for a big shot chinese customer who had us under constant supervision. As a result, we had to party with him nightly.
    I ate everything from cafeteria food to fancy fine dining and drank every type of chinese alcohol. My other favorite was also a local family restaurant with the large spinning tables. I was never hungry.

    I think that when Paulie reclutantly takes the offer to partner up with the restaurant, it was a tactic to seem disinterested. In the end when he accepts you kinda get hinted at that it was a negotiation tactic, so that the restaurant owner gives Paulie a much bigger cut.

    It has been surmised by some that Tommy was sent purposely to run up a tab in the club and to intimidate the owner in order to force him to go to Paulie for help so Paulie could take advantage. After Tommy breaks the bottle over the club owner’s head and starts throwing things at customers he turns to Henry and says ‘You think that’s funny? You’re supposed to be doing this stuff too ya know’.
