Raduno’s Bolognese

Tastemaker
By Anna Faller | Sept. 14, 2024

If pasta is a love language, Raduno in Traverse City is the mother tongue! Now in their seventh year of business, this Italian-inspired gastronomia is cranking out spools of scratch-made pasta, which owner Janene Silverman crafts from a blend of semolina and all-purpose flour and Michigan eggs. Choose from a range of perfectly al dente shapes, from spaghetti to rigatoni to twisty fusilli, then get lost in the sauce with an order of authentic beef and pork Bolognese. This rich and aromatic meat sauce is a menu staple (which rotates seasonally) and incorporates a mirepoix base sauteed with garlic, ground meat, and crushed plum tomatoes, topped off with an herb sachet and lemon zest for a lively finish. Dine in, order a la carte, or take some to cook yourself at home. Find Raduno at 545 E. Eighth St. in Traverse City. radunotc.com; (231) 421-1218
