THE SPAGHETTI BALL - Sal's Pizzeria & Mama Maria's Restaurant - Brooklyn, New York



I was asking about the Potato Croquettes as they were in Egg Roll form and had seen this previously and the counterperson in conversation showed me the neighboring Rice Ball and Spaghetti Ball.

Spaghetti Ball ?

I do not believe I have heard of such a Beast or rarely have.

This wins big time as a table snack or appetizer ($2.75) and is exactly what you would expect. Breaded Spaghetti in Marinara Sauce a la Rice Ball with some mild grated Cheese and perhaps Mozzarella but only just the taste of it and just the right amount, Cristina lost out on having her half unheated because the Garlic aroma really did come out after improperly and lazily microwaving my half and she had hers at room temperature.


Do not know if I will ever get back to Sal & Maria's place but if I do I shall certainly be purchasing more than one.
