| - In Bob Dylan's words, "The times they are A-changin." For New York transplants these are great times for pizza and eggplant parmesain fans. It seemed that a few years ago that I'd have to fly to New York to relive the delicious pizza and heroes that I grew up with. Now that it seems that Las Vegas is in a close tie with Broward County, Florida for Sixth Borough of New York status, I only have to drive a few miles from the 215 Beltway to enjoy delectable New York pizza and eggplant parmesain heroes, which is called subs in other parts of the country.
Recently I gave Mama DePalma's a try. The backstory is that the DePalmas created delicious Italian food that they imported to Las Vegas when they moved here. The backstory implies that Grandma DePalma's legacy lives on with their food. I can say that her legacy also lives on with another positive review saluting her recipe.
Mama DePalmas is so close yet so far away from the New York kitchen where her recipe originated. Mama DePalmas is situated off a palm tree-lined Maryland Parkway in an Albertson's anchored shopping center at the southwest corner of Silverado Ranch Road. Because the back of the business faces the thoroughfare, it is easy to pass by.
As soon as I entered the restaurant, the friendly woman at the counter welcomed me into the restaurant with a smile. In a few minutes I'd be greeting the eggplant parmesain hero on toasted bread with a smile. After exchanging around $13 for an eggplant parmesain hero with fries and a fountain drink, I sat myself at the table. A couple of minutes later, she brought the glass of Coke to my table. A few minutes further, Mama DePalmas recipe was in good hands, which were mine holding a fork and knife.
The eggplant parmesain hero on toasted bread is making me hungry thinking about it. Between the two pieces of toasted bread was a stuffed portion of eggplant covered with the mouth watering warm parmesain cheese. Mama DePalmas did not skimp out on the portion. When I dine on an eggplant parmesain hero, I want the experience to be slower than molasses. The tasty fries were the dining speed bumps that slowed down the temptation to speed through this precious food. Regardless it had to end.
What is better than Mama DePalmas? Two Mama DePalmas in the Las Vegas valley. It makes me happy to learn that there is a Mama DePalmas closer to me across from the Galleria Mall. I really see a future check-in happening here in the future to put their eggplant parmesain hero on toasted bread to the test. This location aced the test with a 90%, the equivalent of a four star rating.
