What would you do with the $25,000?Give back to the community and thank my staff with something nice. I’m very grateful for them. 12 years ago I also obtained another dream and I’m a New Haven Firefighter as well. So cooking is my thing and giving back to everyone that made it possible would be great. Thank you for your consideration Respectfully Billy DiLegge
