"Pepp & Dolores, from the Thunderdome Restaurant Group, is an homage to the Italian grandparents of co-founders Joe and Jon Lanni: Giuseppe (Pepp) and Addolorata (Dolores). All of the entries on its pasta-centric menu are made fresh daily, like mascarpone-filled butternut squash agnolotti or the bigoli, which comes topped with “nonna’s red sauce,” veal and pork meatballs, and braised pork shoulder. Another family dinner favorite, the Dunk (olive oil, vinegar, and herbs served with bread for dunking), was inspired by the remnants of salad dressing left at the bottom of the bowl at the Lannis’ grandparents’ table." - Andy Brownfield
