Sure he was a villain, but if you didn't get on his bad side he was a good musician, cook, and a jolly guy.

We had a couple of his sandwich joints down here in Sydney in the late '70s, and they made fantastic sub sandwiches and soups. Their decor was Chicago 1920s, honky tonk pianolas churning out "roaring 20s" music, subs named after crooked politicians and mobsters...."Big Bill Thompson", "Machine Gun Kelly", "Legs Diamond", "Frank Nitti", yep even good old Eliot Ness had his own designer sandwich.

They closed after a couple of years 'cause the franchise owners were wimps and were "run outta town" by the Colonel and the Clown.

If the real Mr Capone were in charge....he'd push right back at the opposition... there'd be offers impossible to refuse being made.
