re: Great Italian food in NWA, plus the annual Grape Festival in Tontitown.

You telling me NWA has a place like the place in Little Italy in Philly with no signs and takes only cash? If so, then I will say they are the same. If not, I call BS. Even so, guessing they do not have the market, bread joint, and pastry joint to go with them.

I'm only 2% Italian or less, so I'm not qualified to know anything in that regard

our two counties are almost 600k now, so I imagine that includes about 40-50k ethnic Italians, some of who would know the secret spots and back rooms where Coach Cal and his wife will be treated like family.

I love your question actually because it's got me wondering where to ask around for the bread you're talking about. We can buy marinara from certain friends here anytime, but they won't give out the recipe.
