Linguini and white clam sauce
Tom gets this everywhere and said this is one of the better dishes since they don't skimp on the clams

Cavatelli with meat sauce

Veal parmesan
Also excellent

Fetuccini al la Salerno
With a cream sauce and ham
Amazing

Appetizer-calamari
It was very good

Tonight takes Pam and I to Salerno's on the Fox in beautiful downtown
St Charles. Its like going back in time to visit Salerno's. I think they have
the same everything as they did 30 years ago..but the food has always been
excellent!

We will send our reviews of all the dishes!

Pequod's Pizza

Last night we went to one of my favorite hole in the wall pizza places in Morton Grove called Pequod's. Their pizza was recognized this summer in Food Network Magazine, Fifty States 50 Pizzas as a must try! The pizza is baked in well seasoned cast iron pans-the cheese is melted and caramelized resulting in a crust that's to die for. We always call ahead to order; this time around was a sausage, mushroom and onion pie.

Gordon Biersch

Oktoberfest is in full swing everywhere. Last night's dinner was at a Gordon Biersch in Tempe, right in the heart of Arizona State University's downtown. I ordered the Jaegermeister plate which the breaded pork was delicious! It was served with a braised red cabbage and spaetzel. In keeping with the German theme, a Hefenweiss beer paired perfectly!

Queen Creek Olive Mill

So today we took a road trip out to Queen Creek Olive Mill in where else? Queen Creek Arizona. It was interesting to learn the process that makes olives into oil. Extra Virgin is the only way to go! After tasting some; a few fun combination bottles are coming home with us. I can't wait to play with the chocolate, yes chocolate olive oil.

Breakfast @ The Buttes

So here's my first attempt at blogging through email on my phone to The Traveling Dish! Made to order omelet was to die for & just what I needed after a real long night at O'Hare and trying to get to Scottsdale.
