I made the mistake of asking for extra sauce for my noodles at Angelo's Restaurant on Mulberry St. in Little Italy in Manhattan about 25 years ago. Oh boy did I ever get a lesson from the waitress, then the cook, then the owner. It's a no sauce it's GRAVY. As if it mattered to me. The meal was outstanding. They were really nice people but I never went back I didn't want them to upset them over something dumb I said. I'm just happy there were no little fingers or toes sticking out of....I better shut up. Omerta=the code of silence. By the time you pay the toll on the N.J. Turnpike then the Lincoln Tunnel Toll then $30.00 to park then the meal you think Sauce or Gravy is important? It sure was to them. Getting out of that mass of humanity and back to N.J. felt like I hit the lottery. We drive into Manhattan to Rockefeller Center to see the Christmas Tree every year & get outta dodge as fast as possible. I'm really gonna miss N.Y. & N.J.....NOT.
