I have a confession … I am not a great cook but I love a home cooked meal. As a result, I either have to eat out or order in. Further, I am of the view that very few foods travel well (except for pizza and Chinese food). However, at the recommendation of Jennifer G., I tried a new entrant into the Manhattan restaurant and delivery scene and was blown away! A husband and wife team (Michael and Maria Maroni) have a very successful restaurant in Northport and decided to try their hand in NYC. The restaurant serves Grandma Maroni’s 100 year-old recipes that are excellent (do go!), but the surprising innovation is the reusable red hot pots they deliver their food in. The hot pots make you feel like you are eating dinner straight from your stove and that it is a genuine home cooked meal. The hot pots are designed to keep the meal warmer for an extended period of time, unlike traditional take out ware (paper and plastic!). The hot pots are yours to keep or if you are green (like me), you can return them and get $ back on your next order. So … when it is below freezing, call Maroni Hot Pots and order meatballs (and other Italian favorites) like your mama (not mine) used to make from the comfort of your own home!
