Was looking thru the online menu of an Italian restaurant about 30-minutes from my house (ate there a couple of times in the early-90s and had forgotten about the place).
They have a pink sauce as one of the pasta sauce choices - had no freaking idea what the hell pink sauce is - apparently their pink sauce is a mix of marinera and alfredo sauce - my first impression for w/e reason is yuk but it may be good.
They mix alfredo sauce which is white with marinera sauce which is red and that is their pink sauce
^ That’s pretty much what ala vodka, and arabiata sauces are in Italian cooking.
I LOVE Italian food. It’s my favorite
I don’t eat out much, but when I do, I often go to this mom and pop Italian joint called Tre Nonne
Often times I go right before going to the club ;-)
Sounds good as fuck to me
Pink sauce pairs perfects with Vanilla Orange Coke.
^^Orange Vanilla Coke is horrible. I bought a six-pack of it to try because I like regular Coca Cola. I could not even get through one bottle. It is just plain bad.
I love Vodka sauce. I think Classico sells a pretty good vodka sauce in the grocery stores. I love arrabiata sauce too.
Vodka sauce goes best with penne or rigatoni pasta imo.
Papi,
What's the name of the place, location. I wonder if I've been there. Being married into an Italian family over 50 years ago, not many in S. Florida I've not visited in the past.
^^^ Pretty sure it's the Olive Garden on 24th
Sub,
Seems like it would be someplace other than a chain. But since I won't grace OG with my presence, I've no idea what they serve these days.
Clubber: I'm just fucking with Papi. I realize Olive Garden is too upscale for him; who the fuck can afford infinite breadsticks, anyway?
@Clubber
It's The Big Cheese in South Miami - I assume it's been there 40 years but I rarely hit that part of town thus why I haven't visited in years (traffic is bad and the place back in the day was often busy)
Papi, around here I think they call it Rosatella sauce. It is pretty good especially on the seafood based pasta dishes.
^ I’m not a fan of cream sauces, it’s prolly an ala vodka sauce.
