Recently, Ben and I went on a date to a fancy italian restaurant at Downtown Disney named "Portobello" because there was a great cast member lunch deal going on. The food was INCREDIBLE!
We started the meal with Eggplant fries and Marinara dipping sauce. The Eggplant fries were even better then they sound, seriously AMAZING! But the marinara sauce made them EVEN BETTER and the marinara sauce had a familiar taste. Then I remembered, this was the same sauce that Ventano used!
Of course it was familiar! Ben did his internship at Ventano in Las Vegas, and even though he didn't get paid, I got to eat there anytime I wanted for free, and I almost always ordered spaghetti with spinach. It was sooooo good.
As soon as this realization occurred, I blurted out to Ben "Could you make this?" And he could! He even made the Eggplant fries and his were EVEN BETTER than Portobello's eggplant fries. So was his marinara sauce. Seriously loving being married to a gourmet Chef!
Here is a link to the Recipe on Ben's blog:
