Luizzis-North Haven

So we are lucky enough that we have an italian market within 20 minutes of our house. I did not know about this place until a month or so ago when Billy suggested that we go there. So this place makes much of the mozzerella in the area, and its always fresh. Yummo.

So yesterday, I wanted to go to this place. I wanted some fresh mozzerella and I like to see what else they have. Generally, I am not a splurger on things like that, but this place is a weakness. They have pasta in italian, and fresh gnocchi. They have a beautiful deli that has awesome meats and italian specialities. They have a fresh, homemade on premise olive bar. They have a whole fresh butchery and they have a whole section of homemade italian delicacies.

Anydoodle, I digress.

Yesterday, i wanted to go. I was after some fresh mozzerella and gnocchi. I love their gnocchi and I have not gained enough culinary bravado to try to make it on my own yet..I will in the near future though. I think I need additional kitchen porn to do that. Anyway, gnocchi and fresh mozzerella. This mozzerella is so fresh, they make it in the back and yesterday, they brought me out a whole new thing that they had just made. yummmmyyyyy.

So, i got this brilliant idea, thanks to a mention from someone from highschool, to make this great snack out of italian bread, roasted red peppers, vine tomatoes, fresh mozzerella, and balsamic vinegar. well, i have the balsamic, ut not the other ingredients, which is what I bought. I will be making this snacky this afternoon. Personally, I cant wait.

What I also bought was this delicioius, but ridiculously expensive spreadable cheese. We'll be eating that later too...SNACK! And, one of my favorite, baby mozzerella balls. Now, those little buggers are not good for my diet, but they are soooooooo very good. I cant resist them. I will gladly not eat dessert for weeks to be able to snack on those little puppies.

Sigh. Yummo. If you get a chance to go, dont pass it up. Its on State Street in North Haven. Delicioso!
