Post #1 - October 8th, 2019, 11:53 amOctober seems to be a tough month for me. Yom Kippur starts tonight and I must atone for all of my sins. One of which seems to be where I originally planned this month's outing.
It's time for a re-visit. Please join us on the 22nd for good food and (I hope) good company. As always, bring a friend. (edited to reflect a history lesson by jnm123)

Post #4 - October 8th, 2019, 1:51 pmI'm interested but not yet sure I'll be around that day. I should go for the bolognese this time (I won't make the lasagna mistake again). The website doesn't seem to work, but I found the menu on doordash. Jay or anyone else, have you ever had the muffaletta?"Your swimming suit matches your eyes, you hold your nose before diving, loving you has made me bananas!"

Katie--
The good thing about Lauretta's is that everything is at least pretty good. Yes, the Bolognese is great, goes back to Lori's dad's recipe when he owned Two Guys From Italy up in Highwood many years ago. Their chicken piccata is one of my favorite renditions, and the Mediterranean salad is a nice mix of greens & chickpeas, with a killer balsamic viniagrette.
I don't usually go for the sandwiches there so I can't speak to the muffaletta, but I remember the eggplant parm panini as being very good. And usually their soups are excellent.
We'll have a great time, as always. Although, I'm afraid that on the 22nd Dave may still be atoning for his sins & transgressions. I mean, can you imagine that laundry list?!

Post #10 - October 18th, 2019, 11:50 amI think my subtle wording didn't make it clear that I plan on coming, since I haven't been added to the list. But I am planning on coming. Been too long since one of these was arranged for a day I was free. Looking forward to dining once again with you."All great change in America begins at the dinner table." Ronald Reagan
