    Garlic Casarecce
    Courtney O.

    I stopped in to The Chubby Cupboard last week to pick up a gift and decided to purchase a couple of things to try at home. I bought the Garlic Casarecce and the Parmesan Alfredo. I loved that the Casarecce had instructions on the container to let you know how long to cook the pasta for. I cooked the pasta and sauce last night and it was very tasty! I especially loved the hint of garlic from the pasta. The Chubby Cupboard is located in Carmichael and ran by Mari who is as lovely as they come! Very personable and you can tell she puts a lot of love into her pasta making and business. The inside is small, intimate and quaint. She offers fresh and dried pasta as well as homemade spices and a few other little treasures! She also offers cooking classes which I will definitely be signing up for soon! Check out The Chubby Cupboard and support small!

    This is a fun and unique find! They make handmade creative flavors of pastas and sauces. My favorite is the Meyer lemon pasta, marinara sauce, and almond pesto. They even make arugula pasta! You can go to their shop during business hours and purchase pastas and sauces to take home. I do not find their sauces to be over salted like I find in restaurants. The owner is so nice! She trained in Italy. They also have private pasta making classes that you can sign up for online. The store is homey and cute. My new go to for Italian food!

    Chestnut orecchiette pasta in a Gorgonzola cream sauce, topped with shredded Parmesan.

    First, the service is amazing. Right when we walked in, we were greeted by the friendly owners and they were happy to answer our questions and give us recommendations. We took their advice and bought the Chestnut Orecchiette pasta and Gorgonzola cream sauce. It was fantastic. The best pasta I've had in a long long time. The sauce was a perfect pairing. It was easy to heat up and was about $25 and easily serves 4, so much much cheaper than going out for an Italian meal. We served it with homemade bread and a chopped Cesar salad and it really felt like a special meal. I can't wait to try more of their pastas and sauces!

    I've been back twice and I have loved every pasta and sauce I've tried so far. I'm so thrilled to have a great place in Carmichael.

    Had a great experience at Fioris in Folsom! The atmosphere was welcoming, the service was…read moreexcellent, and overall, we really enjoyed our evening. We tried several dishes and went with the recommendation of the pappardelle. It wasn't my personal favorite, so I wouldn't mark the restaurant down simply because it didn't suit my taste. I will say, though, that both my date and I felt the braised ribs had a flavor and texture that reminded us more of canned tuna. I know that sounds wild, but I just couldn't convince my brain that I was actually eating beef! That said, the calamari was delicious, as were the roasted artichoke hearts. We also really enjoyed the seafood linguine, which had great flavor. Add a couple of adult beverages and some good conversation, and it made for a great date night away from the kids. We really enjoyed our visit and will definitely be back to try some more of the menu. If you're in Folsom and looking for a nice place for dinner, I'd definitely recommend giving Fioris a try!

    First time visit on a Saturday around noon…read more Pros: - Nice, spacious restaurant interior. Shaded outdoor patio seating as well. Cons: - Almost everything else. We ordered the Diavola pizza and a peach salad to share. The pizza has a nice crust, but everything else about it was nearly flavorless. No heat or spice at all. Salami seemed cheap. Lots of basic supermarket black olives, if that is your thing. The peach salad... First glace it looked like they forgot the grilled peaches. Then, we find the small crouton-looking things on the plate WERE the peaches. They were not fresh, they were tiny, shriveled and had the texture of a dried peach. Also, cold. Probable been in a cooler for a few days. This was terrible, no excuse for this garbage. The greens and dressing were good, in fairness. -Service was just OK. Server was a little hard to understand, and took a very long time to come take our order. He was friendly enough I suppose, but a bit awkward. Verdict: We will not be back. Nice looking place but the food was absolutely sub-par. How this food earned 4 and a half stars on Yelp is one of God's great mysteries.

I'm new to NorCal and have never had nor have I even heard of this place before. I'm so glad we came here! Great and quick service. Tasty, hearty food that is VERY filling- the "regular" size was quite a large portion! I can't stop thinking about that Mac and cheese! All in all a fast and good experience. The restaurant was very very chill too... it was nice to hear the servers and cooks laughing and having fun with one another. I'll definitely be coming back here.

    Came here on a weekday to pick up some lunch. I ordered from the app since they had a limited time…read more2 for $12 bowl deal for any of their bowls under the Culinary Classic menu. I ended up ordering 2 of the same bowls because it was a limited time only kind of bowl which was a Chili Garlic Ramen noodle bowl. One bowl I ordered Grilled Chicken for the protein and the other bowl I ordered Seasoned Tofu. Side note, the 2 for $12 deal didn't include the proteins since that costs extra so the deal was only if I didn't add any protein to my bowls. Since I ordered from the app, I was able to go in and grab my order then drive back home. My food was still hot by the time I got home even after driving in the cold and pouring rain. When I got home and started eating my bowl which had the seasoned tofu protein, I noticed that they didn't put much of it compared to my husband's bowl that had the grilled chicken protein. On top of that, the noodles were extra oily and greasy and too salty for my liking. I had to drink something sweet after to get rid of all the saltiness. I understand that noodle bowls are typically oily and salty but I just felt like it was too much for my tasting with this bowl. I mostly wished I had more of the seasoned tofu protein though. I guess if I were to order here again next time, I would probably get a bowl with the grilled chicken protein rather than the seasoned tofu protein since it seemed like they add more protein if you opt for the grilled chicken.
