If you're willing to go a little further north, then I highly recommend Cafe Sapori in West Palm Beach. 205 Southern Boulevard  West Palm Beach, FL 33405 It has some of the best pasta outside of Italy.

Lenn- I love it too!  Larry made homemade Fettucine and I made a light Al Fredo sauce!  

BARFF-I thought of you as I was writing this.  I’m craving broccoli rabe with orecchiette!

Janis- I could eat it everyday with just olive oil and garlic.

Dorie- yummy!  My grandmother grew up next to an Italian family so she could make the best lasagna and manicotti!

Frank- we used to go to the one near Winter Park in Orlando all of the time.  Never got to eat in the Pope room.

Sally & David- I always have pasta, cans of whole tomatoes, jars of sauce  in the pantry.  And Larry has started making homemade pasta as well.

Wayne & Jean Marie- like I said...who doesn’t like pasta!

Sharon- I have to confess... so did I.. had it 2 nights ago.

Toni- have no fear... you can eat pasta two nights in a row.

Scott- Hello!  Was very surprised to see the gold star! It’s cloudy and windy here but I have a feeling the upper east coast may bet it a lot worse.

Ron- try Dreamfields.. it’s low carb!

John (QMan)- perfect day for it!  No need to have the all-you-can-eat salad!  Way too healthy.

Silvia- I should have taken a poll..... look how many people have had pasta already this week.

Richie- well that’s quite the endorsement for pasta or something!

Joan- far be it from me to get out of a night of cooking but pasta can be so easy to make!!!

Michael- my favorite is broccoli rabe with turkey sausage and orrecchiette.

Kristin- what?  none in the house???  We got a pasta machine this year and love it.

Joanna- we like the same things... I love pasta with just olive oil and garlic and I have always loved studying Thomas Jefferson.  Hope you’ve had a chance to see Monticello.  

Jeffrey- I didn’t realize it but I think we have it about once a week as well.  

Peggy- I agree!  The family style servings are overwhelming.

Randy- that’s not that far from me!  I’m definitely going to check it out!  

Patty- I’m really in the mood for it now.

Sounds great! I didn't know it was PASTA day! There are many restaurants in the Northern Virginia/DC area to have great pasta but when I visit Boca Raton. I will be sure to visit your recommendation for Arturo's.

Jon- he was very much a Renaissance Man.  If you've not been to Monticello, put it on your list!

Cheryl- I'm with you.  Give me pasta any day. 

Reshawna- when we lived in Leesburg, we went to a small Italian restaurant in the same center as Tuskies.  I can't remember its name but it was great. 

Wanda- what a poet you are!  

Kevin- hope you do!  The coupon for Buca is pretty good too.,

Donna- we don't have one that close to us but it's so much fun to go to with a crowd. 

Spectrum- did not know about that!  Great way to feed a bunch of kids!

Hi Kathy.  Thomas Jefferson was The Man, wasn't he?   Everybody loves pasta -- espeically home made?   It's worth the extra effort.

Kathy, if I had only known it was a celebration I could have had some wine.  This past week it was beef stroganoff, angel hair spaghetti and some lasagna on the 25th.
