THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, September 19, 2025 Page 7 Mystic Station, El Potro’s, Mineirão Steakhouse, Hugh O’Neill’s, 3 Amigos, 621 or All Season’s Table? A: In Maplewood Square our go to’s are Fortune Corner and Malden House of Pizza. The place for our family dinner is Pearl Street Station. Love all those others too. I need to get to Mineirão, I always see that packed when I bike by. Q: Favorite Boston sports team? A: Became a Red Sox fan since moving to Malden. There is some Winslow heritage there too. My great-grandma used to listen to the Sox up at the family farm in Dover NH and her grandson ended up as the trainer when the Sox won it all in 2004. We follow the Celtics, and I am a big Jaylen Brown fan. Helen, my wife, is from Buffalo so we watch more Bills than Pats these days. (My note: We will definitely not hold that against you, Steve, for not watching the Pats!) Q: Last movie watched? A: Went to see Fantastic Four. I loved that cartoon growing up. Q: Last San Rock Feast attended and what did you eat? A: 2023. Always some sausage with peppers and onions with pizza. (My note: It is 2025, Steve – where you been the last two years, Councillor? I kid, Steve!) Q: Fave Boston sports moment? A: 2004 Red Sox v Yankees series, watching the Pats win the Super Bowl on the beach in Cancun and then flying back to 10 feet of snow, watching Pedro Martinez pitch at his prime. Q: Growing up, national politician you admired? A: Jerry Brown who was Governor when I got my first job in California helping take the lead out of gasoline. Also did not hurt he dated Linda Ronstadt, my high school heart throb. Q: Regina’s North End or Santarpio’s East Boston? A: Definitely Regina’s but you must go to the North End. Another surprising fact about me; I was a pizza cook myself in high school and flipped the dough for 100 pizzas one night. (My note: He ain’t no Dave Angelo making the pies, but he was good!) Q: Stones? Beatles? Zeppelin? Temptations? A: Beatles. Though my older siblings would point out that I was a bigger Monkees fan. First got the dancing bug doing the Twist to Chubby Checker. (My note: Steve’s love of the Monkees? Yet another reason to vote Winslow!) Q: Raquel Welch or Brigitte Bardot? A: Neither. Linda Ronstadt always melted my heart! Q: Favorite Stooge? A: I did not know you’d be asking about my fellow Councilors. Ha! No real favorite. My mom banned us from watching the Stooges, but we did get to watch those great pie fights at Grab this rate before it’s gone!

Q: First on the To-Do list for Ward 6 if reelected? A: A bus shelter at 630 Salem Street. Q: Godfather 1, Godfather 2, Casino, Donnie Brasco or Goodfellas? A: Actually, I went more for Clint Eastwood’s ‘Dirty Harry’ movies like ‘Magnum Force.’ I loved the quote “a man has gotta know his limitations.” Q: One improvement to the Malden Landscape Wish List? A: The shade shelter for the Trafton Park picnic area that the Bayrd Foundation is funding. That will be great for birthday parties and for the summer meals with kids. Bigger dream is a greenway network connecting all the neighborhoods of Malden. Thank you, Steve, for your time, honesty, love of Malden and sense of humor. See Malden? He ain’t just a walking, talking bike lane. Gabba, gabba hey! He’s one of us! Insert one last smiley face. Picked up pieces while thumbing through a 1977 copy of The Malden Sun-Times… • Malden election season October 1977; Attorney Ronald Glick running for Ward 5 Councillor, Attorney Larry S. Mazonson running to keep his seat in Ward 7 & Ron Pressman giving the school committee a shot…ahhh, the good old days. Mazel tov, gentlemen! Hope you all won! Kenny (Mazonson) — you got any idea who came out on top? • The “Downstairs Deli” at 77 Pleasant St. is offering an early bird special (6 a.m.-10:30 a.m.) with one egg, home fries, coffee and an English muffin for 79 cents. Neal Sullivan at Cornucopia — can you match that? • Roli Music at 14 Irving St. has “pop singles” 45 cents each or three for $1.25. I remember the time I bought “In the Year 2525” (Zager & Evans), “Let’s Put It All Together” (Stylistics) and “Psychedelic Shack” (Temptations) for that rock-bottom price of $1.25. Don’t believe me? They are still in my collection. • At Simmons Super Market at 347 Pleasant St. (formerly the A&P), you can purchase Ragu Spaghetti Sauce for 98 cents a jar, pork chops for 98 cents a pound MUSINGS| SEE PAGE 19 Happy 65th Anniversary Tom & Marge Love From All Your Kids, Grandchildren & Great-Grandchildren!
