Earlier this semester, Marybelle and Paul Musco graciously invited Chapman students working on an Italian Studies degree, the Italian faculty, and Chancellor Struppa out to dinner at the famed restaurant Il Barone. Chef Franco Barone, who is originally from Sicily and is considered one of the great chefs of Orange County, prepared a magnificent full course dinner for all to enjoy. Paul Musco felt that students needed to experience what “real Italian cuisine looks like,” and certainly they did! Sara Delucchi, president of the Italian Club, described the dinner as “the best meal of her college career.” Below are a few pictures from this splendid evening.
