Hey everyone. This is Chris from Philadelphia. We own a small fresh pasta company here but our interests extend well beyond the world of pasta. Excited to join the many conversations here on eGullet.

Welcome to the forum!

Hello Chris. I think you'll find the folks here at eGullet very friendly. Looking forward to learning more about you!

Hi, Chris!  Welcome to eG.  I'm looking forward to your posts!  When traveling is safe, we are looking forward to coming back to Philadelphia.  We've only been on one flying trip many years ago and want to do a more lengthy food tour!  We have a friend who is from there and his mom occasionally sends us a Stocks pound cake, which is the best I've ever tasted.  Can't wait to see your pasta!

I don't see it on the products page but the other stuff looks right up your alley.  Would love to hear more about that beautiful bucatini. 🙃

But they don't ship! Bigoli is very hard to find, and I wanted to make a specific sauce to use it with.

 

I actually ordered some bucatini  (for the hell of it, and because they had stock of Faella product) from Fresh Direct. So it arrives this morning, at the bottom of a bag of stuff, and the pasta package is all wet. Idiots.

Ahh, missed the local only shipping, too bad. 

 

Bucatini for dinner then? (A la carbonara?)

No, I was thinking with bacon and eggs. The traditional way.

She held off on the bacon until the end, probably because she was so disgusted with everything else.
