Executive Chef/Owner Michael Ayoub marks his return to the neighborhood—& exact location—that put his culinary career on the map with the opening of Fornino in Park Slope. The restaurant is Ayoub’s second location of his successful Fornino brand & is housed in the same space as his previously celebrated, pioneering eatery, Cucina. Joining Ayoub in this effort as co-owners are his brother Frank, & their managing partner, Chris Walsh.
The new restaurant features a rather comprehensive selection of pizzas for which the Fornino brand has become synonymous, but unlike the Neapolitan variety served at its sister location in Williamsburg, Fornino’s Park Slope eatery makes its pies grilled, thin & crispy. Topping options include House-made Mozzarella, Sopressata Napoletana & Chanterelle Mushrooms along with a bevy of market-fresh ingredients. In addition to pizza, the restaurant offers an array of antipasti, hot items, desserts, & scoops from the Gelato cart.
