GOLDEN OLDIE Â Â 15 #1 Posted November 2, 2015 There was a lovely little Italian restaurant on Abbeydale Road called Morilles. (near the Mother of God RC Church) We used to go in the early 1990s. Does anyone know who ran it and if they have ever opened another restaurant? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
GOLDEN OLDIE Â Â 15 #2 Posted January 1, 2016 Does anyone remember the first Italian restaurants in Sheffield particularly those on London Road. There is a guy in his 80s called Gianni Capone who ran one of the first ones and I can't remember the name of it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
