A Taste of Sicily (arnos grove style)

samlassman — Fri, 23 May 2008 10:42:45 -0400

I’d decide to stay. It was a risk I was willing to take for the greater good. I’m not a fan of fish, never have been, not since I ate an anchovy stuffed olive by accident when I was five. 21 …

Chicken Florentine

Samar Bloomingdale — Mon, 14 Apr 2008 18:04:47 -0400

This is a creamy, rich, flavorful chicken dish which is easy to make and easy to eat. I like to pair it with some egg-noodle linguini or other plain pasta. For best results, I marinate the chicken in …

Lasagne

If there was a temple for lasagne, I would worship there as a devotee on a regular basis. (You can read more about my devotion to it here ). It is one of the most comforting of all foods, in my …

Simply spaghetti

I was in Tuscany in a place of dreams. It was summer and, even though the sun had gone, it was still as warm as England’s hottest day. I sat on a terrace wondering if any view could be more …

Vegetarian Carbonara

Andrew — Wed, 17 Oct 2007 22:46:26 -0400

Consider this Italian comfort food. It is the perfect dish for a rainy Sunday that’s got you feeling blah. It’s even better on a Murphy Monday when everything thing that could go wrong …

Al Gelato

My husband makes some excellent ice cream, but Al Gelato does it even better. So if you love ice cream as much as I do, you must try the gelato here. It’s creamy, gooey and so flavorful — …

Bay Cities Italian Deli and Bakery

DChoi — Fri, 26 Jan 2007 19:08:51 -0500

This is an authentic italian deli, the only one I’ve found on the west side of LA. They make fresh italian bread on the premises — when you go, you can always pick up loaves that are hot …
