Tuna & Taz Tar Tare

Anyone ever see Groundhog Day???  If not, rent it.  It's stupid, funny, stupid, nice story, stupid, crazy.  Classic Bill Murray. (not caddyshack classic, but classic in a different way)  Back at Pucci's in the Valley, we were a trendy little spot that did things a little different.  Free hand lasagna, chicken under a brick(an actual friggin brick people!) bringing visiting chefs from Italy!  Need I say more.  I will be exploring some of these recipes in the near future but, it was a pretty cool time in my life and I wanted to share a dish that drove people nuts, they wanted more of it.  I never had enough! 

Cheers!
