“PARK SLOPE — “I started this business with “PARK SLOPE — “I started this business with a dollar and a dream and that dollar ran out a long time ago,” jokes Bonbon Lakay owner Edgina (Eddie) Desormeau.

“PARK SLOPE — Context: “Tutt’appost” is “PARK SLOPE — Context: “Tutt’appost” is Neapolitan dialect for “Tutto a posto” – the Italian expression that “all is in place.”

All was not in place at Tutt’Appost. Three 30-something friends in New York, with respective Neapolitan connections, opened their dream restaurant on 5th Avenue in Park Slope. The idea was to showcase their shared passion and expertise with both inventive Neapolitan cuisine and charismatic hospitality.”
