He is the Vodka sauce expert and he has a favorite restaurant where he always orders it. But he says my recipe is just like it! I take that as a huge compliment! You can just barely taste the Vodka in it, it is not strong. I know you can’t find this dish in Italy anymore, but it is truly a mainstay at Italian American restaurants. Lucky us! Enjoy!”
