Something about us:
 
My name is Marisa Furno, I’m Argentinian, and I haD lived in California since 2002. It’s a place I’ve grown fond of and I adore just as much as my country. 
 
My passion for cooking started when I was 14 years old in Buenos Aires. My sister Adriana and I would recreate recipes from an old cookbook  with much enthusiasm, we would look at recipes and make them together. She would usually take care of the main course, while I on the other hand would take care of dessert.
 
We had (before the cookbook) tried to make recipes ourselves, trying our best to mimic my aunt Pini (the family’s cook) but regardless of how hard we tried, the book was truly what taught us.
 
As time passed, I started working at an accounting firm, in which I worked for 20 years.
 
In 1997 while I kept working there, I started a catering company, which I called MEFISTO. After catering for many events, and parties, I decided to further perfect my cooking and take it to the next level. Therefore I enrolled in the Argentine Gastronomic Institute, where I graduated in 2001.
 
Towards the end of 2001, the crisis in Argentina forced my family and I to migrate to California.
 
Since then, I raised my children here. I have three beautiful children whom I adore, and love to make them those random orders ( apple crepes at 12 am on a Tuesday night, for example). But sometimes I missed my old catering business.
 
In 2004, we bought a condo in Arrow and Archibald, just in front of the commercial center where Guido has his deli. When I went for the very first time, I instantly fell in love with the place.
 
I have a passion for cooking, and I noticed that Guido had the kind of place that I wanted to cook in. Small, cozy, familiar, and italian.  I was asking  Guido for his business for about 4 years. He always smiled at me politely, but no answer.
 
All I had to do was wait. Two years ago, I moved to Fontana, so I never went back.
But this year, in January, I don't know why, but I passed by his place and again, I asked him for his business. Finally, I got an answer from him. I couldn't believe it!
 
I got out of there to tell my husband, Alex, and that was the day when my dream began.
 
I have this passion for cooking, and my husband loves socializing.
Running Guido's place is an honor for us. That is how we feel.
 
My whole family will work hard to keep this place thriving.
 
Give us a chance to show you our culture in the best way we can.
 
Call us, email us or text us if that is better for you!
 
Thanks!

Algo sobre mi:
 
ā€‹Mi nombre es Marisa Furno, soy argentina, y vivo desde 2002 en este pais, que amo al igual que mi querido Argentina.
ā€‹
Mi pasion por cocinar, comenzo a los 14 anios, en Buenos Aires, recreando recetas de un viejo libro de cocina que mi hermana Adriana  y yo leiamos entusiasmadas cada domingo. Ella hacia la comida principal, y yo me dedicaba a los postres, para deleite de toda la familia.
ā€‹
Si bien antes habiamos incursionado en la cocina, un poco imitando a mi tia Pini (la cocinera de la familia), nunca habiamos tenido exito hasta encontrar este libro de recetas.
ļ»æļ»æ
El tiempo paso, y por esas cosas del destino, me dedique a trabajar en el area contable de una empresa, en la que trabaje por 20 anios.
ļ»æ
En el anio 1997, mientras seguia trabajando como contable, cree mi empresa de catering, a la que llame MEFISTO, y luego de disfrutar tanto de la organizacion  de cada evento como en la preparacion de cada plato, decidi que podia hacerlo de forma profesional y  me incribi en el INSTITUTO ARGENTINO DE GASTRONOMIA, donde me recibi de profesional gastronomico en el anio 2001.
ļ»æ
A fines del 2001, la crisis hizo que mi familia y yo emigraramos a California, en donde aun resido.
ļ»æ
Tengo tres hermosos hijos a los que adoro, y a los cuales mimo con lo que sea que me pidan (crepes de manzana a las 12 de la noche de un martes, por ejemplo, jeje)
 
Hace 4 anios que le pregunte a Guido por su negocio. Siempre me sonreia pero no me daba ningun respuesta alentadora. Solo me decia: "Y para queres vos este negocio?" Yo le decia que tenia raices italianas, y que queria hacer pizza, y que me gustaba la sensacion al entrar a su negocio.
 
El tiempo paso, nosotros nos mudamos a Fontana. En enero, pasados 2 anios de mi ultima visita, no se porque volvi a pasar y le pregunte otra vez por su negocio, ya con un poco de verguenza por la insistencia. Para mi sorpresa esta vez me dijo que si.
No lo podia creer!
 
Fui a ver a mi marido, y le conte las buenas nuevas. Y a partir de ahi comenzo mi sueno a hacerse realidad.
 
Hoy puedo decir que estoy orgullosa del marido que tengo que me apoyo en esta locura, y que sera la cara de este negocio, ya que su passion es socializar con las personas. Y que por fin voy a poder compartir con todos mi passion por cocinar.
 
Al principio va a ser duro, porque encontramos muchas trabas para poder cocinar todo lo que queriamos, pero si vamos a poder ofrecerles nuestras pizzas y algunas de las mas famosas empanadas argentinas.
ļ»æ
Ya me conocen un poco mas, ahora permitanme que yo los conozca a ustedes. Llamen O COMUNIQUENSE POR WHATSUP!
ā€‹
Consulten por precios, cantidades y variedad, ya que hay muchas cosas que se pueden hacer al gusto de cada uno.
ā€‹
Los pedidos especiales los pueden hacer con 48 horas de anticipacion como minimo.
ā€‹ 
Gracias!!!
Marisa y Alex
