Eleven years later, in 1906, he moved to Chicago and founded another Italian restaurant on Taylor Street in the same family tradition. This restaurant enjoyed such success that Rosati's was able to expand to include a hotel, a saloon, and a small importing and exporting business of Italian foods. Pizza, back in those days, was strictly old-world Italian fare, simply a tomato sauce served on crisp bread. Mr. Rosati often put it on the table as a special treat for his customers and friends, but there was no charge for it.</p> <p style="margin: 15px 0px 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-family: helvetica, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 16px; vertical-align: baseline; color: #414042; background-color: #e4e4e4;">In 1927, Ferdinand's son Saverio opened yet another restaurant in Chicago featuring the finest Italian dishes. Over the years, this downtown restaurant became a popular gathering place and was frequented by such notable names as Al Capone, Jack Haley, and Eliot Ness.</p>
