That’s Alfredo, the dude who invented (or at least claims to have invented) fettuccine alfredo. He ran an Italian restaurant, and when you ordered it he would come to your table and prepare the alfredo sauce in front of you.
Real alfredo sauce is basically just butter and Parmesan; the jar sauce you find in the grocery store that says it is “made with 100% real cream” technically wouldn’t be authentic alfredo sauce, as authentic sauce doesn’t use cream. Alfredo would put a full stick of butter on the plate, then pile the hot noodles on top to melt it. He’d grate Parmesan and use his hands to mix it. The butter and Parmesan would melt together, forming the sauce. Add some spices, and you’re done. The restaurant was popular with celebrities and social elites, who enjoyed the unique dining experience.
