Is Sale and Pepe the same Davide as LaGondola days?
NO! He left the island a long time ago and would NOT run a $hitshow like this.
Ah ok! Well I totally messed that up. For some reason I thought there was a connection to Sale & Pepe or maybe Izzi?
Not at all. Davide Foini owned LA Gondola and employed a waiter named Davide (Carroccio, I believe?) and the chef was Marco Ferrante. Izi was started by Davide Foini with Marco in the kitchen but Marco has since moved on to Isola and Davide Foini runs Izi.
The Davide that runs Sale & Pepe is not in the La Gondola/Izi mix.
I edited my initial response as there are multiple "Davide"'s involved.
