On a press tour for “The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent,” Nicolas Cage shared a San Francisco memory. eatersf confirmed the restaurant and the mysterious dish.
Rose Pistola was a top guess, seeing as how it was a modern, buzzy Italian restaurant at the time, but owner Laurie Thomas, reached via email, didn’t have any answers either. Thomas didn’t have all of the restaurant menus to search through, she told Eater SF, and a look through the Rose Pistola cookbook for a garganelli dish turned up nothing. Another dead end.
Looking for an injection of more restaurants to contact, I reached out to the prolific Facebook group, When asked what the “square tube pasta” dish could have been, Spinoso began describing a ravioli dish — then presented a different answer. “The other one was called paccheri,” Spinoso said. “It was a pasta [dish] with an oxtail ragu. They are the size of a half candle, and then when you cook it, they get flat a little bit. Almost like a rigatoni, but wider, larger.”
