Like others, I don't seem to be able to start a new thread except by replying to an empty post.In fact I couldn't even do this until I switched to "plain text editor"Anyway, I heard this on Woman's Hour yesterdayhttp://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/womanshour/02/2010_04_tue.shtmlA restaurant in the Big Apple has opened serving food, not only like Nonna made it, but cooked by real-life Nonne!!Noo Yoik Italian/American grandmothers and their food. Worth listening to just for the accents!

 I must say that one of my favourite Italian restaurants is actually in New York City. It is called "Peasant" and it is superb. You can have a look at what they offer: http://www.peasantnyc.com We are also just back from San Francisco and there are plenty of excellent Italian restaurants there. This time we tried "Salute" at Marina Bay and it was very good. Have a look at their webpage: http://www.salutemarinabay.com I particularly love their motto: "A tavola non si invecchia" ;)
