Noodles Panini; Great Italian cuisine making history!

This week’s entry is a tasty history lesson about one of our featured vendors on: Wonder-Munch!; The Fun-For-all Food & history tour experience of Fort Lauderdale 

  In 1896, in Italy's Puglia region, famous for its abundant grains and vegetables; a son was born to grocer Giuseppe Panini, famous for being the son of Nunzio, creator of the, or sandwich in Italian. This Panini was invented quite by accident when Nunzio laid some grilled eggplant and fresh goat cheese between two slices of foccacia bread he had just pulled from the oven, but that's another story…

                                                                            

Destined for gastronomic greatness by his birthright and in his own right, 6 year-old Giuseppe Jr. left his home in the Mediterranean at the "heel of Italy's boot" in 1902 and crossed the Atlantic with his family to explore America. There, he served the well-heeled citizenry of Boston at his father's grocery store but that's if they happened to be in the market for great pasta as young Giuseppe was never stocking shelves or sorting supplies; Instead he was always making and sampling pasta. Penne to bombolotti to spaghetti, his passion for producing the perfect pasta soon earned him the nickname "Noodles", which would stick with him for the rest of his life. Remembering fondly childhood summers visiting his aunt and uncle in Venice, Noodles retired to the Venice of North America; Fort Lauderdale, Florida and that is where I met him and basked in the warmth and humor of his inspiring stories. 

So it was only natural that when family and I, first around the dinner table and then around the drawing table, designed our sandwich and pasta place, we named it Noodles Panini, in honor of another food-loving family. And in case you've heard that it was the Earl of Sandwich and not Grandpa Nunzio who invented the sandwich, remember that in food, as in life, anything is possible. So stay open to new ideas and fresh tastes...and eat plenty an often at Noodles Panini.

Chilean sea bass w/ Whipped Potatoes, Champagne Truffle Sauce: Ocean Prime Beverly Hills 7/14/16

Wonder-Munch Demonstration dish 7/14/16

As stated in prior posts this blog is created with the intent of featuring our associated vendors featured Menu items (Appetizers, entrées, drink special, etc…).

The general idea is for this blog is to be updated on a weekly basis consecutively & throughout the calendar year with each week featuring a different associated vendor.

To demonstrate this concept, the management at Ocean Prime Beverly Hills is gracious enough to let us use several of their menu items & we thank them for believing in our business model.

This week’s item:

 Chilean sea bass w/ Whipped Potatoes, Champagne Truffle Sauce

The food looks appealing here but at this point our goal with this is to show that we fully intend on making our associated vendors shine!

Without being too specific for layout & so as to give our associated vendors flexibility, the associated vendor would provide photos & information content that can be anything the vendor submits such as:

• dish specifics
• seasonal specials
• drink specials 
• food specials 
• restaurant logos 
• etc…

Wonder-Munch will post the associated vendors requested information on The Tasty Waves Blog for at least one week & until it is another associated vendors turn in the rotation.

The benefits of this blog to our associated vendor can be most benificial with Wonder-Munch & our associated vendor’s common vision of success in the marketplace!   

In closing, this demonstration is intended to be very simple so that Wonder-Munch can show vendors the Wonder-Munch recipe for success as well as show vendors this concept without all of the "bells & whistles"
