The proverbial hole-in-the-wall with great food by rhoing

The proverbial hole-in-the-wall with great food

Tiny place. Big flavors. Family run (not “family ran”). Yesterday's post stopped the “pandemic” label for jigsaw puzzles, but still doing carry-out/take-away from restaurants.

The “story” of this restaurant is an interesting one of happenstance, but we're very glad they stopped here instead of continuing on to their prospective destination of Pinckneyville, Illinois. Also glad our neighbors introduced us to it. And finally glad that “mama” has been willing to work with the new owners to pass down the recipes before she retires for good.

Little hole-in-the-wall places have the best foods and flavors. =) Love your shot! How's their calzones?

@marlboromaam Agree! And family-run isn't uncommon with such places. Don't know about the calzones; we always get pasta dishes because it's their red sauce that is so amazing!

@rhoing Been a while since I've had a great alfredo sauce. Little Italy in Baltimore had lots of these little family run places. 1991 was the last time I had a truly great chicken alfredo. (sigh)
