'''Creating Centi re-opens Township'''

By Tyler Schilling

KN0X — The Township Tavern,
a long-time fixture in Knox,
will soon be re-opening under a '
new owner.

Paul Centi, with 34 years of
experience in the restaurant
business, plans to open the bar
and restaurant at the end of this
month or the beginning of June.

Located at 1412 Township
Road, the site was formerly
Lucky's Tavern and the Hilltop
Cafe. The building has been
vacant since last fall.

The Township Tavern will be
a sit-down and take-out restaurant
and will also feature a full
bar, said Centi.

"I'm going to be family friendly,"
Centi said, adding that
he will offer a full kids' menu.
He will offer "standard family
fare," he said. "Menus are one of
the last things you can do."

Centi, 49, was most recently
an executive chef at the Ginger
Man on Western Avenue in Albany.
Before that, he owned the
Rosewood Cafe on New Karner
Road for five years. "I just
wanted to work for myself
again," he said.

Centi also likes the building in
the Knox hamlet of Township
because of it's history; the building
in the Knox hamlet is about
180 years old. Once the Township
Hotel, the way station
served as a halfway point between
Schoharie and Albany, he
said.

The tavern, for many years,
had been owned by Harry and
Delia "Barney" Palombo and was
most recently owned by Owen
and Mickey Rivenburg.

As well as serving as a restaurant
and bar, Centi said the
Township Tavern will also host
banquets, wedding receptions,
anniversaries, birthdays, and
retirement parties.

The comimunity has been enthusiastic
and friendly, said
Centi. Neighbors have been
stopping by, he said, and someone
has already asked him about
holding a reception.

To get the tavern Up and going,
some of Centi's family will
help out at first; he plans to hire
between seven and 10 employees.

At first, Centi plans to open
from 3 p.m. to midnight. Once
his restaurant is more established,
it will be open from noon
to midnight, he said. Centi said,
he will not have a pool table in
the bar nor will he book bands at
his establishment. He might put
in a jukebox, he said.

Centi will be spending much of
his time in the kitchen, he said,
and will be serving specials -
seafood on Friday nights as well
as pasta dishes.
