My partner's grandmother used to make pannelle - fried chick-pea flour pancakes - and we've been looking everywhere for an Italian place that serves the real thing. Any help would be much appreciated - we'll travel to any borough to enjoy them. Thanks!

I'm guessing the closest train would be the F to Carroll Street. I think they are also a special at Otto, but I don't remember which day of the week they're offered (Saturdays?).

If you strike out elsewhere, I'd suggest rooting around out there.

DiStefano) 2 1709285 don't know if you're still looking, but Ferdinando's on Union St (between Hicks and Columbia) in Brooklyn has the BEST.

Mcdonald Ave. and Ave.U.Great Sicilian coffee shop. All food is fresh daily. Saturday get the bow-tie pasta with fresh tomato/basil sauce. Also the mussels are a good bet to be a great sop for the bread. Rice balls, tripe, spleen. Great homemade food.

I usually buy them by the dozen and freeze them at home. They fry up beautifully ....just like you get at the stands on the beach in Sicily. Fernando's on Union St. in Carroll Gardens also has good pannelle. Mon Apr 12 23:33:05 -0700 2004 1428142 0 terry
