Johnny Pizza, along with his business partner Roger Diaz, own the charming Hoboken Cafe on Whitlock in Marietta, Georgia. They’ve become famous for their amazing meatball sandwiches, their delicious salads and cheesecakes and especially for the most tender fresh mozzarella cheese you’ll ever taste. Mr. Pizza makes it himself, every morning, and he cooks with joy and passion for his faithful customers at the Hoboken Cafe.

Back in the day, he used to not only cook, but also take care of the transportation and security of some remarkable people. Pat Cooper, Frank Sinatra and his son, Frank Sinatra Jr., Joan Collins, Liza Minnelli and many other famous entertainers of yesteryear, they all worked with Mr. Pizza and trusted him in essential aspects of their lives. Born and raised in the town of Hoboken, New Jersey, this guy that came from very quiet beginnings really did good in life. He had the chance to spend time with the likes of Presidents Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton, Elizabeth Taylor – who actually brought out his birthday cake one night in Las Vegas! – Jack Nicholson, Meryl Streep, Brad Pitt and anybody who is anybody in Hollywood and around the globe.

In this interview, originally broadcast on FM radio and featured in the international bilingual magazine LaRevista.ro, Johnny Pizza shares his incredible experiences and tells the story of his life.
