Pasta D'Arte is actually in the extreme NE section of Norwood Park, just down the street from Superdawg. It's a charming little place with a fantastic menu.

Aw man, I bet that seminar will be all lies. What, you think you hang around with some post-civil war chefs and you're one of them?? Man, my homies in the Latin Chef Kings would stomp a mud hole in that guy's ass. For reelz, I bet he's just making all that stuff up like James Frey did.
