DATE: JUNE 11,2008
SUBJECT: CANTA NAPOLI PIZZERIA
90 E. BUSSE AVENUE
REQUEST FOR A NEW CLASS "S" LIQUOR LICENSE
On Wednesday June 11, 2008 the Village Manager met with owners Adina Gherman and
Geana Hudema regarding their request for the creation of a new Class "S" liquor license for
the above referenced establishment. The Class "S" license provides for the delivery of full
service alcohol in conjunction with a lounge. Canta Napoli is a new restaurant going into
one of the retail spaces in the recently completed Emerson development in downtown
Mount Prospect. The centerpiece of the restaurant will be an authentic brick oven that will
be used baking pizzas and other menu items. A small sit-at bar will be part of the decor.
The owners also plan to have outdoor dining in season.
Ms. Gherman will serve as the full-time restaurant manager while Ms. Hudema will manage
on a part-time basis. Ms. Gherman has had previous restaurant experience, most recently
in Deerfield. Ms. Gherman holds a certificate from a certified liquor servers training course
and Ms. Hudema is in the process of acquiring her certification.
The Village Manager discussed at length with Ms. Gherman and Ms. Hudema the Village's
particular sensitivity to the sale of alcohol to minors and over service to clearly intoxicated
individuals. The Village Manager also indicated that the applicants were responsible for the
actions of all employees and managers. Mr. Janonis covered the Village's Fight Ordinance
requirements. Ms. Gherman indicated that she understood the requirements of the Village
code and that she plans to require all of her staff to receive certification in alcohol service.
A completed application along with fees and required documents have been submitted. The
owners have submitted to fingerprinting and background checks. If the Village Board
considers this application favorably, an Ordinance creating a new Class "S" liquor license
should be adopted.
