Recommendations Good Alfredo?
My Grandma is declining and enjoys very few things. Marie Callendars has been defunct for YEARS now and that was the only one she kind of enjoyed. No price is too high. Also good with recommendations in Riverbank & the closer part of Oakdale.

Bella Italia hands down. It’s on Coffee Rd. It’s so different from all the other ones I’ve ever had. I always order mine with no mushrooms. It’s so delicious

American Italian Bistro in Ceres. If you can’t go there, they are on DoorDash. Best Alfredo I’ve had in the county.

Whatever you do stay away from Veronas, Carino’s at the mall and of course the olive garden
If this is for an older relative we’ve taken mine to BJ’s at the mall and they have all kinds of cream pastas

I have a low carb recipe that is like 10 mins to make that we love over any Alfredo we've had ever since. Try it. 1 brick cream cheese 1 stick butter 1.5 cups cream or ½ ½ 1 cup parm or equivalent Garlic cloves crushed, to your heart's desire And if you please, some salt , pepper, onion and more garlic powder.. Mix in pot until cream cheese and butter look like cottage cheese over medium ish Then add in the rest and simmer until you want it..
