Buon Gusto, a new Italian take-out restaurant, to open in late January.  Owner, Joe Esposito is no stranger to the neighborhood, practically growing up on the corner of Myrtle and Ryerson, when Los Pollitos Restaurant was the family-owned business, Card Corner, a Hallmark card and helium balloon landmark.  499 Myrtle is still family-owned and Joe’s branching out into a backspace of the restaurant.  The restaurant will boast a large, mainly takeout menu of extensive pizza offerings, antipastos, salads, dinners, rice balls, meat balls, jalapeno poppers, 15 different hot hero choices, calzones, paninis and soups.  Among dinner options will be shrimp scampi, tortellini and oreganata.  Bon appetit.  Stop through when the restaurant opens in late January.

Buon Gusto is located at 499 Myrtle Avenue on the corner of Ryerson.  Enter the restaurant through the side entrance on Ryerson.
