MARABELLA’S RESTAURANT Recommended by Philo. Inquirer (Sundoy Inquirer. July 30. 1978)

By John V.R. Bull .

Inquirer Staff Writer

Good home-cooking is hard to find at Jersey shore restaurants, but if you go to Marabell’a, you will be offered a welcome change from the fried seafood and cole slaw served at

so many restaurants.

This seven-year-old family dining place in the middle of Stone Harbor offers fine southern Italian cruisine

at moderate prices.

There’s nothing fancy about Marabelia's, which is operated by a South Philadelphia family. The plastic-covered tables have paper placemats, hanging plants decorate the front windows, and children

receive free balloons.

But the food is freshly home cooked daily and some of it is ex^ cellent. The homemade tomato sauce, for instance, is rich and flavorful, obviously fresh, and it goes exceptionally well on the homemade manicotti and lasagna

dishes.

My favorite of the dishes sampled is six large, fresh, moist deep-sea scallops sauteed with fresh

The homemade manicotti is two large, freshly made shells filled with ricotta and mozzarella cheese, topped with that rich tom-to sauce. Veal parmigiana is a generous portion of excellent veal, with a nice crust and a cheesy tomato sauce. A dish of good, homemade
