In our house, we'd like to support local market and fresh made goods, so when we saw many commercials of Ventimiglia Italian Pasta Market, we went to try it out, and to support the idea of fresh homemade pasta around Metro Detroit.
With Fresh Basil Leaves
We ordered one pound of pre-made ravioli, and half a pound of tomato sauce! The bill was a shock to me at almost $30, without bread or salad to go with this dish that we had to put together at home.
Pre-Made Ravioli and Tomato Sauce
I had to admit, the tomato sauce was fresh, taste great, and good looking in color, but the ravioli was just so-so. This dish certainly fed only two people, not worth the money we paid for, especially after driving 20 minutes to get there, and another 20 minutes getting back.
When cooking at home, I preferred to stay in budget and able to feed all members of my family! Even though these ravioli and tomato sauce were homemade, they were not what we've expected them to be.
indeed, that is an expensive one if only good for two people and not even in a dine-in restaurant, and you have to mix it up yourself. looks very yummy though, but sometimes, look is not equal to taste.
ReplyDeletelooks yummy. too bad it's too expensive.
ReplyDeleteOuch! But boy, does it ever look delicious! I try to do that, too -- buy local. But sometimes local makes it hard!
