The legend of Buca di Beppo involves a covert meeting of key developers in a 'mafia' style restaurant in the United States. 'Bucas' has one more than one occasion been the catalyst for key (and in some cases considered insurmountable) development 'humps' being overcome.

With copius amounts of food and wine flowing, the creative juices of coders seem to work keener, faster and problems are solved. Louis Landry famously agreed that living near a Bucas could actually lead to faster development cycles.

Mmmm. A restaurant with photos of famous mafia films like 'The Godfather' and violin cases leaning against the booths.
