This is what I ate for dinner tonight:
This is Lobster Ravioli. Inside each little pillow is a LARGE amount of delicate lobster meat. It came frozen from a local manufacturer called San Marco. It is located in Downingtown. They are closed on Mondays, so do not try to find them that day. They make noodles, spaghetti, shells and... as you can see, ravioli. Some is dried and in bags. Some can be found frozen. They also... if you get there early enough...have the most delightful Italian bread that is good with a slather of butter as a snack before bed! There are some sauces or the ingredients for special sauces. There are cheeses and olives and a few exotic ingredients. It is a small shop, so do not expect walls or aisles of items. They have a limited offering, but they are made there and offered to the public. I am sure that in the back they have a wondrous facility and I am also sure that they supply many restaurants in the area that are known for 'fresh' or 'homemade' pasta.
I know they provide a local eatery with item. I have even splurged on Lobster ravioli at that restaurant. But I could have served 12 people for what I paid at San Marco. I will be getting my own, from now on.
Not to worry, Brian, I am still going to learn to make my own pasta. Ravioli is something else!
