CHICAGO (WLS) -- Coco Pazzo in River North is marking 30 years in Chicago.

Breads are baked in house and pastas are made fresh every day. In addition, ever stock, sauce and pastry are prepared by staff.

Jack Weiss is the owner of Coco Pazzo.

"It's just amazing," Weiss said. "I come in everyday and I feel like it's a new dinner party. it's just thrilling creating new food with the chef and making people happy."
