Restaurant owner swaps pasta life for barbering in San Francisco
Bruno Viscovi, longtime Italian restaurant owner on Lombard Street near the Golden Gate Bridge approach, quits 15 to 18 hour days after nine years to become a barber. He completes 1500 hours of training, earns his barber license, and works at Shear Bliss while balancing a new marriage. He now enjoys days off and cooks for his wife at home about 65 hours weekly. Mary Queen of Scots betrothal dated back to 1548 is noted in a related line.
