With Valon working the front of the restaurant and with Rusit working the kitchen, the pair applies their hands-on expertise to all aspects of the business.
First, the new restaurant has fine-tuned its lunch and dinner menus. Less than a year old, the new restaurant serves the Connecticut Shoreline with a variety of classic Italian dishes and contemporary specialties created by Chefs Rusit and Rudi Cecunjanin. Now, the management team has adjusted the menu mix to maximize freshness, quality and efficiency.
In addition, the team has implemented several new promotions. Special "Happy Hour" dishes and cocktails are offered Monday through Saturday. A new "Ladies Night" menu has been added, with specially priced drinks, appetizers and main courses offered on Tuesdays. On "Half-Price Wine Bottle Wednesdays," Café Fiore sells its broad selection of wines at half price, served by the bottle. Cafe Fiore Gift Certificates are also being sold, with discounts planned for special occasions. The restaurant is also scheduled to participate in Branford's Restaurant Week this Spring with a special, prix fixe menu.
Mike Quint has joined Dave Goclowski, providing live entertainment on alternating Friday and Saturday evenings in Cafe Fiore's cocktail lounge.
Avdimetaj remarked, "We've taken the experience that we've brought with us from years in other restaurants, including our sister restaurant, Fiore II in Middletown, and we're now adjusting it to make it work for our Shoreline clientele. It all helps us create the best possible dining experience."
