Amsterdam's '72andSunny' created 'The Sleepover Chef,' an interesting advertisement for Garofalo Pasta. The premise is simple enough, Lele, an Italian comes to New York City with three goals: find New Yorkers, cook them the best meal ever and sleep over at their house.
This proves to be more difficult and his forwardness is met by apprehension. Lele is unsuccessful until he goes to visit Lynsay Reynolds, a New York food blogger. He shows Lynsay and her guests the most authentic way to cook Garofalo Pasta.
Lele is comical to watch, but it would be a whole other experience to have in person. By visiting the Facebook page for Garofalo Pasta and answering why Lele should come and cook for you, you just may get a visit from the Italian chef.
