Cafeteria's Mac & Cheese Recipe

[Eleni]

who can get it for me?
or anyone have the best recipe they think kills?

I want it LIGHT, Cafeteria's is not heavy but I cant figure out which cheeses they use...Im guessing Fontina, White cheddar and another...im not sure but I feel like they use a dash of Wosteshier sauce too, maybe nutmeg too? HALP :pullhair

anyone have a most delicioussss recipe? I want it to end up looking whitish not orange yellow :yousuck

[antknee]

their mac & cheese is prob the only thing good at that place lol. I thuoght they used manchego cheese.....maybe a little bacon fat too.

[antknee]

"Cafeteria Macaroni And Cheese with cheddar and fontina
8.00
with smoked gouda and bacon
9.00
with truffle oil"

Really, i love that place. Have u ever tried the country fired steak or the tomato basil soup. The also have this chicken dish i forgott wat its called, its a very plain dish but the chciken is delicious. But to each his own.

Gino's right thouhg....Smac & Cheese I go to a lot and is good. Its a hole in the wall spot, but they have any/every combo you can imagine. you can also build up your own dish.

just spoke to him. he said just cook your pasta. then ina pan melt butter and add your cheese over low heat. he like to use gruyere, fontina and some parm. start to melt it down and add some cream. he said make a lot of it. then add the pasta and mix it. then top it with some breadcrumbs and parm cheese, he adds some lemon zest and bake it in the over until it forms a crust and viola ! :lostit
