CONSHOHOCKEN, Pa. (WPVI) — In this week’s The Dish, we’re taking a trip to Montgomery County for a dish one of our 6abc viewers said you can’t miss.<\/p>\n

Thank you, Lisa, for sending us to Aroma on Ford<\/a> in Conshohocken.<\/p>\n

It’s a new Italian spot where the authentic, rich, creamy, and meaty malfaldine bolognese was absolutely worth every bite.<\/p>\n

It all starts with fresh pasta.<\/p>\n

“This is malfaldine,” says Executive Chef Joe Cardillo. “All the pasta is made in the house.”<\/p>\n

Cardillo brings his Italian recipes and techniques from his native Naples.<\/p>\n

“I make about 30 pounds of pasta a day,” says Cardillo.<\/p>\n

We take the malfaldine to the kitchen, where his nephew and sous chef Niko Misticoni gets to work.<\/p>\n

“The bolognese has a sofrito, carrot, celery, onions, and we do pancetta and red wine,” says Misticoni.<\/p>\n

The meat is a combination of beef, pork, and veal.<\/p>\n

“We also put a little bechamel in there,” says Misticoni.<\/p>\n

We take it to the table for a taste test with owner Gary DeSanto, who opened Aroma on Ford last November.<\/p>\n

“My wife and I had an idea to start a little Italian restaurant,” he says. “A comfortable place and a place that we would love to dine at. We were looking at something that we would love to eat, something that grandma made, something that my mom made. I mean, is that the best or what? Waking up on Sunday morning, smelling a pot of gravy! We wanted every day to feel like an Italian Sunday meal.”<\/p>\n

The menu is packed with Italian favorites, homemade desserts, and a creative cocktail program.<\/p>\n
