Have any of you ever heard of Toasted Ravioli?

It's supposed to be a St. Louis only thing. But I'm sure a lot of people have heard of them.

I've made fried ravioli before, but never seen it on a menu.

It's not something that happens in Chicago. Or at least it wasn't when I high tailed it out of there.

Here in Iowa? If I find it I'll try it.

I didn't realize this was a thing that wasn't everywhere. I've had them at restaurants around the country, and they even serve them at my high school sometimes.

Toasted is another word for fried in this case, and they are almost always amazing. I'm hungry just looking at them.

Gotta go to The Hill to get authentic Toasted Rav, and some of the best Italian food you'll ever eat.

The best I've had while in St. Louis is at Farotto's. They have a location on Manchester near McKnight road in Rock Hill, and they also have another location Chesterfield. They have some of the best pizza I've EVER had!

I've had them and breadstick cannelloni in VA. If they're St. Louis's doing St. Louis did well.

The Manchester location isn't too far from me... Might have to take the girlfriend on a date there.

Screw the big stainless steel arch, let's be famous for toasted rav!

It's a great date location. Their pasta is also good if she doesn't want pizza.

Actually, I don't really care for them. They are OK, but I'm not a big fan. But I can put down some Imo's. Also dierbergs has a chocolate gooey butter cake...

I gre up in St. Louis, and toasted Ravioli has to be one of the best unique foods that city has to offer. Someone else mentioned Farottos, and the one in Chesterfield was the one we always went to!

XJDano > Logansteno: Bought a VW?
04/14/2014 at 08:08

yeah, I have to go by the store after work. I must get one now.

Just don't eat the whole thing (because you'll surely die).

XJDano > davesaddiction @ opposite-lock.com

Yeah, I can't eat any more than a 2" square of that stuff, or I'll feel sick.
