[@michellel5402]

That would be neat, however, Link did say he expected the old school place to be better but actually liked the new one, so it does seem like they are trying to be unbiased in their opinions at least

[@CableAnna]

The old place seems American-italian where as the new place is more European-italian style

[@msfoodiediva]

That's exactly what it is..I prefer southern Italian/European Italian over Italian American. Italian American itself is bland imo

[@staciii]

What is European Italian? Would that just be Italian? 😂

[@tay7051]

Italy is in Europe lol

[@visualizeflow8450]

Nope it's the other way around. The new place is actually more American because it pushes away from traditional Italian restaurants. The traditional restaurants recipes are from Italians who migrated to America.

[@msfoodiediva]

@visualizeflow8450 you cannot get Alfredo or claims casino in Italy that's Italian American. That's American invention. The pasta done at the new place is considered what you find in italy

Despite what Stevie says, I appreciate the descriptive commentary today. Not everyone experiences GMM the same way. Not only does it help people who have issues seeing, it is also nice for people, such as me, who like to listen sometimes. Keep on describing, Goomba Brothers.

[@pb_and_nutella]

What’s “new” is actually just what’s really really old, which is to make good, fresh food. The “old” place here is doing more of a classic American restaurant thing, like frozen, pre-made, not fresh etc. I expected the “old” place to do better, but what’s actually old school did end up doing better lol.
