What Is This, Chicago?
The qualifying statement “which has a contract despite alleged mob ties” seems to be becoming a cliche*:
A thriving Queens restaurant and catering hall — which has a contract with the Parks Department despite alleged mob ties — keeps such shoddy records that it’s impossible to tell how much taxpayers are losing from unreported revenue, city Comptroller Bill Thompson charges in an explosive audit.
Based on the receipts they could find, Thompson’s auditors said the Merissa Restaurant Corp., which operates Caffe on the Green in Bayside, owes the city $120,607 in fees for nearly $1 million in unreported income during 2006 and 2007.
