In Roanoke, Virginia, the Sassos savor empanadas with food truck owner Nelson Pantoja, who reveals what makes his food truck, Empanada Nirvana Roanoke, a must-visit and shares stories from his remarkable life.

In this flavorful episode of The Sasso’s Out Podcast, Frank and Christina sit down with special guest Terrance Tatum from Wellsboro, Pennsylvania—manager and visionary behind the beloved local hotspot, Timeless Destination.

Join them as they explore the story behind the restaurant’s name, Terrance’s passion for creating meaningful dining experiences, and what makes Wellsboro such a unique destination in itself. From small-town charm to big-time hospitality, this episode serves up laughs, heart, and the kind of conversation that leaves you full—in all the right ways.

This week, the Sassos welcome special guest John Palma of Chatham, New Jersey, Frank’s friend since 1988, for a rich conversation that blends travel tales with personal memories. John shares highlights from his recent trip to Italy, but it’s the connections made along the way that take center stage.

As the trio swaps stories, they also spark a good-natured debate over one persistent mystery: where exactly is “South of the Border”?

With humor, heart, and a few unexpected confessions—like how Christina married Frank partly because she always liked the sound of John’s voice—this episode reminds listeners that the best journeys are the ones filled with unforgettable people.
