Mama's Lasagna
Oct 11, 2023 08:30:05 #
Back in June, I went to Frank Guido's restaurant in Kingston, NY before attending a Buddy Guy show across the street. I had Mama's Lasagna, and it was so good that I was determined to go back for more. It wasn't until last night that my son and I were able to go and have that wonderful lasagna. It was just as good as I remembered it. If you want a good meal, and you're within driving distance of Guido's, it's worth the trip.

Aside from Guido's, there is a lot to see in this area. https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attractions-g48003-Activities-Kingston_Catskill_Region_New_York.html

Yes, that is a long drive. I have friends and relatives in VA.

Lasagna is so easy to make. My wife makes a vegetarian lasagna as well.
This will make 12 servings. Have an adventure and save tons of money! Easier than installing a chimney lining!

Kingston is about a 2 1/2 hour drive for me. Let me know when it's done! Cafe Azzurro is only 10 minutes for me. www.cafeazzurronj.com (BYOB) The roads go both ways.

Yes, it is (fairly) easy to make, but putting the Stauffer's into the oven is even easier. Every so often, my son will come home with ingredients for lasagna. He makes a delicious version - NRR - no recipe required.
Thanks for the link. I've taken quite a few recipes from that site. I have a "Recipes" document with 182 pages of recipes.
We had a nice BYOB restaurant near here years ago, but complaints from other restaurants put an end to that. When I want wine, I buy 12 - 15 bottles from Naked Wine in CA. The case of assorted wine costs about $100 with a coupon.
EDITED: I clicked on your "Cafe" link. Great pictures! No prices on the Menu, though. Guido's lasagna cost $26. Stauffer's costs about $3 per serving. That's why I tend to eat at home.

I'm afraid if I start with Guido's, I might not be in a condition to see other sites.

Prices are reasonable. We have quite a few BYOB restaurants in my area in NJ. We don't drink anymore. Stopped about a year ago.
Stauffer's and other "frozen dinners" taste like $3. Home made or good restaurant made taste like their price. I cook, so I eat yummy dishes for very reasonable prices. Occasionally we go out to eat at excellent local restaurants.

$3 to you, $26 to me.

Actually, it's $0 to me. I never tasted Stouffer's Lasagna. I began cooking, other than eggs and a few other dishes, around age 50. Since then, I seldom purchase or eat frozen food entrees. Many, many years ago, I did buy and eat "Swanson Dinners". If I were offered free ones now, I'd cordially and politely decline. I'm retired and have all the time I need. I used to work 65 - 70 hours a week as a teacher and even more hours at 2nd jobs. So I always have enough time now.
