When Lombardino’s, a neighborhood Italian restaurant on Madison’s near west side, shut down temporarily in March due to COVID-19, chef and owner Patrick O’Halloran suddenly found himself cooking at home.
“Being a professional chef I don’t cook at home as much I used to,” O’Halloran says. “This was my first break in 20 years.” In order to keep busy O’Halloran started a YouTube channel and started creating cooking videos. “I had to keep cooking, I couldn’t keep still,” he says.
