I'll pm you tonight when I get home. Now I'm sitting here at work craving one

I never made them before, but I won't quit until they are perfect. (I hope)............ Like a Jew really knows a great Cannoli. But I do know a great Chicago Vienna hot dog I'll make you a batch (cannoli's) and you be the judge.

There's an Italian "gourmet" market (I think it;s called Punta Italia?) in the large plaza directly across the street from La Sirena. I haven't been inside, but I've heard the owners are Italian..maybe they can help find what you're looking for.

Is this in Santiago?

........and checked this place out.............

NO CANNOLI's..................

and the owner wasn't there and the person working there had no idea where to get them..........

This place seemed to have mostly italian pastas, olives, cheese, wine and some tables to sit and eat..........not sure what they serve cause I was in a hurry...............only know that they don't have pastry!

Its in the Plaza on the same side as the JETBLUE office but further back from the street.........

I didn't forget waytogo, I'm sick as a proverbial dog and haven't dug out the recipe/s. I'll do it as soon as I can crawl to the kitchen. Now if there were a fresh batch of cannoli in there I'd be scampering :-) Chicken soup has nothing on fresh cannoli!

[waytogo]

You haven't tasted MY chicken soup. I just happened to make a fresh pot of homemade chicken soup. The real deal, chuck full of fresh carrots, celery, onions, mucho pollo, and more....After a few hours in the ref., I take off all the fat that goes to the surface.so yummy
I really enjoy HOMEMADE food....Take your time and take care, remember, a lot of fluids.

Changing the subject, I can't even find a good prime rib here. OK, I can't find one at all. I would give my left n*t for a prime rib roast.

You know what I didnt like was when you go to a "finer" restaurant, I didnt see many of them but anyway, and you tell them how you want your meat prepared. No matter what, it always, ALWAYS, comes back well done. And its like chewing a rubber tire, albeit a bias-ply tire. Or maybe more like the inner tube?
And whats up with steak sauce? I mean, if you re going to over cooked it, over season it, and offer a wet piece of lettuce as accoutrement, why not indulge me by hiding this disasterous piece of meat, under 4 ounces of A1 equivalent?
