A couple of times in Le Marche we were served pasta with the seafood already shelled, and it took the fun out of it I thought.Rosahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12010394263374216145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5928754436992490761.post-81847182108104536292007-08-28T12:27:00.000+00:002007-08-28T12:27:00.000+00:00Oh Rosa how I love spaghetti alle vongole... a hal...Oh Rosa how I love spaghetti alle vongole... a half-serious question: when you eat it, do you take all the clams out of their shells first, and then eat the dish, or clams out of shells along the way??? Just curious... I'm a clams out first person but not sure I get the best out of the dish that way!.....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5928754436992490761.post-19954754675794586632007-08-28T05:34:00.000+00:002007-08-28T05:34:00.000+00:00I thought you would like the sound of those tortel...I thought you would like the sound of those tortelloni, Lucy! During our two weeks in Le Marche we barely heard a word of English - the only American tourists I saw were in Urbino (one couple). It still is an undiscovered region in many ways, but I guess it's not easy being Tuscany's neighbour!Rosahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12010394263374216145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5928754436992490761.post-28724178523241640222007-08-28T05:09:00.000+00:002007-08-28T05:09:00.000+00:00Glad you're home Rosa, and that you enjoyed Le Mar...Glad you're home Rosa, and that you enjoyed Le Marche. What is it about those more sparsely poulated holiday destinations? I feel exactly the same way...glad too that you got at least a little taste of that seafood.
