I read the Northern Liberties community message board a lot, and post on it with relative frequency. It's always nice to know what's going on in my neighborhood, even when the news posted is, well, less-than-nice.

DiBruno Bros. is a really dangerous place for me. I visited their Center City location yesterday because I was in the neighborhood and I thought maybe I'd pick up some fresh pasta. I was planning on making a quick pomodoro sauce to go with it... and then I got inspired. What I ended up serving alongside the porterhouse steak I ended up buying at DiBruno's (not part of the original plan, but it just looked so good) still resembled pasta pomodoro in the end... only better. The combination of crispy proscuitto and fresh goat cheese lend the dish an interesting texture, and the red wine helps the dish to have a more robust flavor. Recipe, or an approximation thereof, is below.

We love puppets. We really love puppets. In fact, the only thing that we may love more than puppets is pasta. So how happy are we that we’ll be able to combine both of our loves this weekend when Great Small Works rolls into town, bringing their famous Spaghetti Dinner/Toy Theater evening to the Rotunda. Puppet Uprising hosts the New York natives for two shows, Friday and Saturday night at 7:30PM.
