Dev Test County • February 11, 2025
Good morning, Dev Test County. Martin Scorsese might want to point his camera toward Ravenna, where our local pizza shop has transformed into the latest mob movie hotspot. "Divorcing the Mob" is serving up a slice of Hollywood right here in Ohio, complete with our chamber of commerce director trading business cards for FBI credentials. Who knew witness protection could be so deliciously local?
Meanwhile, the food scene is serving up drama of a different flavor. A beloved Beachwood food truck park has parked permanently, while over in Solon, a bagel shop became the scene of an impromptu coin-tossing performance that earned one customer a lifetime ban instead of her desired discount. Pro tip: If you're hoping for special treatment, loose change isn't exactly legal tender for goodwill.

π Popular Beachwood food truck park shuts down after just 18 months. The 11,000-square-foot venue, housed in a former fire station, closed its doors at the end of January 2024. The establishment, owned by Daniel Deagan, had offered a rotating lineup of food trucks, local beverages, and ice cream since July 2022. While the Beachwood location has ceased operations, food truck enthusiasts can still visit the sister location in Lakewood, which maintains regular hours throughout the week.
π¬ Mobsters and FBI agents take over Ravenna pizza shop for movie shoot. "Divorcing the Mob," a new film about a witness protection case, is transforming local businesses in downtown Ravenna, Ohio into movie sets. Director John Reign plays Vinny Berlusconi, a mob underboss forced to choose between his wife and criminal life after she catches him disposing of a body. The production features several local establishments including Guido's Pizza, Big Dog Saloon, and West Main Street Winery, with community members stepping into acting roles. Local chamber of commerce director Ryann Cline even landed a speaking part as an FBI agent.
πΈ Angry customer throws coins at bagel shop worker over denied discount. A 35-year-old Mayfield Heights woman was arrested for disorderly conduct after hurling change at an 18-year-old employee at D&R Bagels in Solon, Ohio. The incident occurred when the worker refused to hand-deliver the customer's change, which had been placed on the counter. The customer, who works at a nearby business, claimed she was entitled to a discount she'd received previously. Police issued her a citation and banned her from returning to the store.
