Arrivederci, Campo! Ciao, Il Cibreo!

By Bwog Staff on Jun 17, 2011 22 Comments

Update: We at Bwog have written something of a Campo eulogy, so pour out some crappy beer in honor of our dearly departed and remember what once was: When a new restaurant called Campo first arrived in our humble Morningside Heights, we called it the “New Pertutti” and complained its Italian food was mediocre.
