The community's spot as a central hub on Long Island is what made it ideal, as well as its residents. A long search eventually led him to 197 Terry Road, Smithtown. "It was my dream always to become owner of my restaurant," he said.Īfter the closure of Caci North Fork, Pellegrini decided it was time to search for his own location. Now, as a co-owner at Osteria Umbra, Pellegrini finds himself in an expanded role outside of just being the chef.
