5 out of 5 stars Unbelievable   May 31, 2006
I haven't gotten this book, but I was just at Ralph's which I and 4 other people found by accident while vacationing in the area. This is probably the best Italian food I have ever had. I don't know if I can duplicate the incredible food with the cookbook, but I am going to try. I had linguine with crab meat sauce which was so delicate and sweet. Another person had the veal parmesan which was beyond fabulous. Another had the baked lasagna which I took an extra order of it home to Detroit where I shared it with a few people who found it extraordinary. The restaurant is wonderful; the staff amazing and I'm so glad there's a cookbook because they don't deliver!


5 out of 5 stars The best red sauce   December 19, 2000

I've lived in San Francisco and spent time in New York, but you can't find a better red sauce than Ralph's in South Philly. The book captures the personality of the Philadelphia institution and delivers some of the best and most authentic Italian recipes.
