| - Yummm Mama Ricotta's! One of my best friends worked here during my first years of college so logically (with the food discounts and everything), we would come here for lunch or dinner a lot. If I could fall in love with a restaurant, it'd be true love between me and Mama Ricotta's. Apparently a lot of others feel the same way so maybe Mama's is cheating on me. Oh well. I'll tolerate it this time- I'm still in that infatuated stage and I don't think it's ending any time soon. I always have a ton of options here and everything is always absolutely perfect. I usually hate eating pasta with only tomato sauce and no grated cheese, but I was forced to try their angel hair pasta with tomato basil sauce WITHOUT parmesan cheese and it was perfect. I was truly amazed. Who knew tomato sauce could be so good that you don't need or even WANT cheese?! And the tiramisu? In the past, I've personally described it as the equivalent of a tiramisu-flavored cloud. Perfect texture, perfect combination of flavors and perfect density. Best tiramisu 've ever had by far.
However, with that said, I am bummed about two things. First off, their Mama's Pasta is NOT on the menu anymore. Apparently they can still make it, but it's by special request only. Also, the tiramisu has been lacking in cloud-like quality the last two times I've gone in to eat. It could be that I'm just getting the last slice of it or maybe they just changed their recipe. Either way, I've been slightly disappointed. Hopefully it'll be back to the same thing next time I go. *fingers crossed*
