Bielat Santore & Company’s “Who’s Who in the Restaurant Industry”
Freehold, NJ (PRWEB) September 10, 2014 -- Born and raised in Rome, Italy, Piergiorgio Ceciarelli knows a thing or two about Italian cooking. Ceciarelli broadcasts his passion for food with the success of his restaurants Solo Trattoria located in Freehold, New Jersey and Coal Fired Pizza Restaurant located in Manalapan, New Jersey. Guests can explore international dishes inspired from all parts of Italy without ever having to leave the Jersey Shore!
Using his experience working in the food industry at a young age, the chef decided to go into the business. After open and operating a restaurant in Florida, Ceciarelli opened Solo Trattoria in 2005 in New Jersey to be closer to family. “Being Italian, we all have food in our blood,” said Ceciarelli. “We love it here in New Jersey, being able to work with the local farms to get fresh ingredients.” Ceciarelli expressed his love for the small Jersey Shore town, which emulates his hometown. “The borough of Freehold gives me that European feeling of a small town instead of being in a strip mall on a highway,” said Ceciarelli. “It feels like a community.”
Growing up in central Italy, Ceciarelli introduces his customers to recipes from both Northern and Southern parts of the country. “When we came over here we brought a lot of dishes that were not seen anywhere before,” said Ceciarelli. “We are behind our product 110 percent, and serve everything homemade.” Ceciarelli is also proud to serve many restaurateurs that come to dine often. “It makes me happy because they are people from the industry that really appreciate fine cooking,” boasts Ceciarelli.
Coal Fired Pizza Restaurant located in Manalapan, New Jersey is also very popular serving pizza out of a coal oven. “We wanted to make the best pizza in the area,” Ceciarelli explained. “It’s not about being the best pizza in the world, but creating the best product for the area.” The three year old business welcomes everyone but mainly encourages family dining. “We have had a lot of customers that have been coming to us for years and I have watched their families grow,” said Ceciarelli. “It’s fun to watch the kids evolve and have their own families.”
A third business that has taken off with the Ceciarelli name is his wife Antoinette’s cupcake business. Bake Cupcakery operates out of the Coal Fired Pizza Restaurant selling homemade cakes and cupcakes for any party or event. The tasty treats are also featured at Solo Restaurant.
