The one to order

Tortellini in brodo, in capon broth

The line to expect: Book a day or two ahead for dinner; weekday lunch walk-ins are easier.

The sfogline roll the dough by hand every morning; this is the bowl Bologna argues about, and it usually wins.

4 hr including broth, about 2 hr hands-on · About 250 tortellini, 6 people. The Christmas bowl of Bologna: tiny pork, mortadella, prosciutto and Parmigiano tortellini in a clear capon or chicken broth. Rolling them is a family afternoon; the broth does the rest.
