Now, back to gnocchi ... last night I ate at Nove in Victory Plaza in Dallas. (There also is one in Vegas.) They have the second-best gnocchi in town (that I have eaten). Very large, delicious dumplings. (They also have a wine room with a light display that is reminiscent of the lighted backdrop in "Hairspray." The restaurant is exquisitely decorated.)
However, Daniele on Oak Lawn has a mouth-watering gorgonzola gnocchi that is out of this world. When you are done with the gnocchi, sop up that sauce with bread and make your tummy happy!
So, the moral if the story is, if you are in Dallas, like the person in Ivan's avatar once was, don't make gnocchi at home ...
"I am open, and I am willing,
For to be hopeless would seem so strange.
It dishonors those who go before us,
So lift me up to the light of change."
