Hope Kevin can find something in Moultonboro or Center Harbor. Love his end of the month all you can eat lobster buffet.

I was at Kevin's for lunch mid-February, and he mentioned he had been talking with the owner of Kona Mansion about taking a job there as a chef. Don't know if that is working out, but I would really like to see him re-open soon with his own place.

Kevin makes a great breakfast too ! - Maybe he would be interested in buying the Alton Bay Diner that is for sale?

michelemybell · 04-06-2014, 07:35 PM

Sadly an awesome location did not pan out
It will be that place's loss

We still have a couple more possible locations that we
are working on. Stay tuned. And keep checking Kevin's Facebook page

Real surprised Kevin is not staying on his own. Maybe a decision due to the (lack of) locations??

I think it is smart for him to showcase his talent and bring a strong customer base to an established restaurant. It's a win-win for Kevin & Rossi's.

Is he still catering on his own or is it through Rossi's?

michelemybell · 05-06-2014, 06:40 PM

Catering. Kevin will still continue to catering on his own for now
He has a large catering base and events that have been in the planning
For over a year If you have any events that need catering, please message him through his website

Maybe someday he will find a new location but for now the venture with Rossi's is win win for both of them

Hope to see you all at Rossi's

Come on in and introduce yourself

I lived in and spent some time in the kitchen in Italy for 2 years. The Italian Cuisine is by far my favorite. I was able to sneak away on a Weds night a couple years ago to eat at Rossi's. IMO they served the best Italian food in the LR.

Leslie and I can only dine out together on Mondays. When I read this post I became very excited after learning that I could share my find with Leslie. We've enjoyed two extended stays in Italy together and she too often finds herself with a craving for Italian.

So... once I learned that Keven would be "working at Rossi's on Monday's" I quickly checked my calendar to mark the date. Yesterday it was

I woke up and right after "good morning dear" was "dinner at Rossi's tonight".

II spent the entire day day-dreaming of the moment my tongue would be reunited with Parmesan and Chianti. I pushed a little harder on the greens mower to make room for a canoli. The anticipation was at times overwhelming. I could bare it no longer. I put down my rake and went In for a quick shower then, "let's go dear".

We hopped in the Van and I fought the urge to speed as we headed to Rossi's. Ten minutes later the sign is in sight. I wipe the drool of the steering wheel so I can grip it firmly to turn into what I find out is an empty parking lot. Rossi's is still closed on Monday's

Newbiesaukee · 05-20-2014, 04:58 PM

This afternoon I happened to drive by Rossi's. The sign proudly says open Mondays.

michelemybell · 06-03-2014, 07:40 AM

Minor scheduling issues but Kevin will be working at Rossi's every Monday

HTH

We tried again and succeeded last Monday. Everything was fantastic!! I knew right away we were in for a treat when we were greeted by Margo, the owner and I detected an Italian accent. She told me that she makes here house made pasta on weekends. I told her that we were only able to get out on Mondays. About 15 minutes later she brought out some complimentary house made ravioli that was EXQUISITE!!

It was really special to chat (in Italian) with a 31 year established restaurant owner who still takes great pride in her work and cares for her guest.

Oh yeh.. the first words out of Leslie's mouth when she bit into her Shrimp Alfredo was "this is the best I've ever had" which she repeated 3 times.

michelemybell · 06-15-2014, 03:41 PM

I am so glad you had an awesome meal. I think the Seafood from Kevin and the Italian from Margo are a great combination and is working out very well

Come by and enjoy the AYCE Clams on Friday nights. Best whole belly clams you will ever taste !!
