It is a Catholic Church thus Eyetalian approved and lunch is not in the basement, they feed the homeless down there. As to the desserts today - they suck. I do luv lasagna though but not necessarily the veggie variety.
As to Chipotle - cant think of anything that sounds worse than that.
Understood. At risk of confirming for all my banter brothers what an asshole I am...
I'm first generation Italian. Most Italian-Americans in the NYC area aren't "real" Italians according to me. They're the ones that pronounce ricotta as "rah-gawt" instead of "ree-co-ta". Besides, a "real" Italian knows that lasagna shouldn't have ricotta in it at all.
One last editorial note: I can't stand being around "real" Italians, the kind residing in Italy. That includes the members of my family. The week I spent there in the beginning of June couldn't end quickly enough.
