Again with the blogging. . .

So now that this is up and viewable for the entire world to read, I am going to put it out there. . .we are now making FRESH PASTA. Yes that is correct, I really am. I never promise something I can't deliver and now I am delivering on a promise I made when we opened.
We are making fresh tagliatelle right now and with some good fortune I hope to be making filled pastas soon. I have always said that we are going to grow this thing slowly and do it right. If it is not something I am proud of then I will not sell it, no matter what. I believe that you, our customers, have come to trust that we will always bring to you a high level of quality and service. I will never do anything to jeopardize that trust.
We are also making "sunday gravy". Now this is what people mean when they talk about that all day tomato sauce, that grandma used to make. This is the old east coast tomato sauce that you see Clemenza teaching Michael Corleone how to make. Rich, slightly sweet, with a big tomato flavor. This is not "marinara suace", and please don't call it that, it's offensive.
We are also offering hot food in store during these "colder" months. Menu changes daily, but always something tasty, fresh and hand made. We also have a few take away items that are made fresh and can easily be quickly reheated at home when you don't have the time but want something tasty and honest.
