Pasta E Pasta

Shame on me.A dear trusted friend told me about this place in her neighborhood several years ago.Of course I drove by never give it a second thought and never stopped. So this past week I was in Chesterfield Township and put it on my list of errands to try.Walked in at about 5:45, trying to make a quick selection knowing that they close at 6 p.m.However.. .  .  . Maria would have none of that nonsense.First of all the place smelled wonderful like a glimpse into Grandma's Kitchen.I said well I came on Wednesday to try the Italian wedding soup but I may have to come back on Thursday to try your lasagna.She said we have both everyday then gave me a guided tour of the multiple freezersand all the jars of sauces and multiple packages of noodles.Although I had not had my dinner yet I showed great restraint my budget under $40.Bought a couple of quarts of Italian wedding soupA frozen selection of lasagnaBlush pasta sauceTwo cannolis witchsy freshly-prepared for me.We had the soup and lasagna for dinner the next night:The Italian wedding soup was extraordinary the best I've ever had.The lasagna had meat sauce and ricotta, and the noodles were not heavy at all they were like Heavenly little pillows.( if you're looking for a comparison in a positive fashion the lasagna reminded me of The Villa Restaurant in Eastpointe yes it was that good)Maria is a food ambassador living out a labor of love and I cannot wait to return.Ps:Are you tired of giving gifts of candy and flowers?They have pasta gift baskets for your friends, family and clients More...

Maria is a very sweet woman. While I only met her on the phone and my husband picked up the noodles she walked me through exactly what I needed to make my families Christmas Tradition continue. My grandmother started the tradition 80 years ago. This was my first year taking over the tradition. I come from a long line of amazing Sicilian cooks and I didn't want to disappoint. The only thing that would've been missing from my lasagna is home made noodles. So, I called Pasta E Pasta and they made my lasagna dreams come true.My Aunt Dora and Aunt Grace were so proud. It made me feel so proud to carry the tradition. Thanks so much for your help! I'll continue to come time and time again.Why buy prepackaged store bought when you can buy fresh right down the street?! More...

I'll admit to a little bias up front. I went to LCN as a kid so I remember the family. My wife's family lives next door to them. So just keep in mind that my review may be through rose colored glasses.That said we had a great trip to Paste E Paste when we went to Michigan for the holidays.The family greeted my wife and I like we were family. They chatted while I was busy drooling. We ended up with:2 bags of homemade noodles.GnocchiRavioli1 meat sauce.The Gnocchi went with the meat sauce for a side dish for Christmas. I always want to like gnocchi at restaurants. But it never tastes good. Always soft and mushy. These had plenty of texture. Red sauce was not the right choice but I didn't know what was in my parents' pantry so we used what we had.Ravioli I made a homemade marinara. The raviolis were great. They were expensive but after trying to make them at home a couple of times I'd much rather let someone else do it and pay them for their time.Noodles were exactly what I want from homemade. Great texture. Not quite as... floury as when I make them. We used them in alfredo (that one I made from a cream sauce... I recommend a bit of blue cheese but my taste is not the same as the in laws).Overall the price was definitely high. So if you like to have lots of pasta or have a large family this may not become a source to get all of your noodles. But it is a great treat once in a while. More...
