Syracuse, N.Y. This week marks an end of era on the Central New York dining scene.
For the first time since 1982, the Pascale family will not have a single restaurant in its business portfolio.
Technically, their last restaurant, Pascale Italian Bistro at Drumlins country club in DeWitt, has been closed since the end of golf season in October, family member Chuck Pascale said. But its lease with Syracuse University, which owns Drumlins, expires Friday.
The lease also gave the Pascales the catering/event business at Drumlins, and that, even more than the restaurant side, has been sabotaged by the Covid-19 outbreak.
