Al Dente

A lady in sunny Rimini,
told the chef she wanted zucchini.
She finished her meal,
then said, with some zeal;
“I love, sir, a firm bucatini.”

I love zucchini, but I've not heard of "bucatini" before, Terry. Is it pasta, veggie, or some other Italian delight?

Bucatini also known as perciatelli is a thick spaghetti-like pasta with a hole running through the center ;-)
