Grew up in New York in an Italian / Jewish neighborhood. Most of the mothers thought of me as "too skinny" and the number of times I had to eat an Italian /Jewish dinner before I went home are too many to count. As I...grew up, I learned how prepare Italian meat sauce, marinara sauce or vegetable sauce. Eventually I was able to almost discern where Momma had learned to cook. Sicilian, Venetian, Nobalidon, and how the sauces were prepared. Yes, I became an aficionado of regular Italian, pizza sauce, meat sauce, and marinara. With my Sicilian "mother" I became able to discern if she had put a pork bone in her meat sauce or not. Unfortunatley or fortunately I was also able to discern out of the can sauces. Ledo is pizza parlor and they had a waiting line almost out the door. Luckily we were there to have a sit down dinner. They extolled their Lasagna and I bit, by asking them for a serving of lasagna. It had the normal colors of red sauce and cheese. It was a little bit watery, and this was a bust Saturday night, so perfection was not expected. even though there was a certain amount of watery sauce just outside the lasagna. I was expecting to see several layers of pasta, with layers of cheese and meat between the layers. Nope, One layer with Mozzarella on one side and some kind of sauce in the middle. I was able to cut this item with a fork and i then "dug in" and was really disappointed with what I received as a really thin pizza sauce. I as I worked my way through I realized that this was not lasagna as I knew. There were not the wavy lasagna noodles, just a layer of mozzarella with something that might have wished it was a hearty meat sauce. Were there with our daughter and her vegetarian husband so I chose to just eat it wait to leave. I did not smell the normal pepperoni, spice or even something like basil or oregano anywhere in the air. Then I had to console myself, this not a New York, Brooklyn or even a Chicago Pizzeria. This was a typical place that put canned pizza sauce of a round of Pizza dough and called it pizza. I guess people from the Washington D.C. area don't know what real Italian Pizza is like, yet, let alone real meat sauce or even how many layers of Ricotta, meat sauce, Mozzarella, or spices it takes to make a real lasagna. My Sicilian "mother" would beat me with her wooden spoon, that I became familiar with when I acted up at her house and caught my real mother "teaching" me manners with her wooden spoon when I got home. When our daughter suggests Italian again, I will hopefully, know of other real Italian food in the area. I'm certain they will not be happy with this review. I normally do not write this type of review. Or I ignore it, unless its really mediocre or really … well I'll finish now.More
