I am a firm believer in, and am very excited about, the Slow Food Movement taking root in the city. I did a Non-profit proposal based on this program, but I really don't have the time to see it through. Time, I am sad to discover, is a limited resource...

I actually spend more time here than anywhere, as it is the conduit to the rest of the city. A didactic collection of cultures, from Russian Emigres to Latinos, there are taquerias, irish pubs, polish cafes, and high-end pizzerias around every corner.....

You've taken her to an art movie. You've gone bowling. You even went to see her 3-year-old cousin being pulled in a wagon in the Labor Day parade. It's time to pull out the big guns and cook her dinner.

I just discovered this small shop, owned for like 100 years by the same family. Get everything you need for a make-at-home authentic Italiano feast: My Advice for Ravioli Aurora (for 2; Baby blue not eating solid food yet:
- 1 Lb. Cheese Raviolis
- 2 oz Proscuitto (they slice it thin)
- a Bottle of Pino Grigio
- 8 oz marinara
- 2 oz Pesto
- 1 oz heavycream (okay, you can use half and Half)
- 1 ea dried red chili
- 2 tbs EVOO
-4 cloves garlic, minced
2 p salt
3 twists of pepper mill
A) The Sauce
1) Heat EVOO over med heat, add garlic and chili (crushed and flaked by hand), brown.
2) add proscuitto, recover heat and deglaze with a splash of Pinot Grigio (gives it that hint crisp fruity flavor- some people prefer chardonnay for buttery-ness. I will sometimes squeeze a lemon wedge after the wine has reduced a little to give it a little extra panache).
3) add marinara, take a sip of Pinot (you can pour a glass or go strait from the bottle if you really want) then add pesto and cream, stirring to swirl marinara and pesto.
4) add heated Ravioli, toss, and plate. Garnish with Parmesan, Asiago, or jack cheese.
