I saw this on our PBS station a couple
of weeks ago. On Saturdays they do all these
cooking shows at the station with local
people coming in and making one of their
favorite recipes. I missed the beginning of
this segment so I never heard them say the name
of the dish.

This lady made crepes and then filled them with
a shredded cheese (maybe Romano) and some other
stuff (maybe some chopped meat like ham or something)
and rolled up each crepe into a very tight tube so
that they were about 6-8 inches long and about 1
inch or less in diameter. Then she put about 6
of these rolls into a large soup bowl and ladled
some hot chicken (?) broth over them. I thought
this was a pretty strange dish. I'm really dying
to know what it's called.

TIA,
Kate

Go to the PBS website and find the show that you saw. Most have the recipes
available to download.

We have something similar here and we just call it stuffed pancakes. Rather
than the broth we would use something like a mushroom sauce and stuff them
with mushrooms too. Cheese sauce would be good on the recipe you mention. I
usually fold my crepes into four

Hmm, Stuffed Crepe Zuppa
Cannelloni are sometimes made with crepes... served in broth this is
likely some regional Italian dish. Balducci's (now defunct) used to
sell a very similar dish mail order ("Veal Cannelloni"😉,crepes stuffed
with veal and cheese, in a veal stock... arrived frozen in two separate
containers... was part of a gift basket that I remember well, was
awful. It's no wonder Balducci's didn't survive the dot.com wars,
their products had great presentation but tasted terrible and were
outrageously priced.

On a side street in Zihuatanejo in a decidedly non-tourist restaurant
we once ordered that night's special, as indicated on an erasable sign.
The locals at the neighboring table smiled and indicated that was a
good choice. It turned out to be rolled corn tortillas containing a
spicy meat and onions mixture, placed on end in a bowl containing a
clear chicken broth, garnished with a bit of scallion and cilantro.
Its name: "tacos especiales." Certainly not what we expected, but
indeed it was tasty.

Side note: if you go to Zihuatanejo, don't look for this. Stick with
the fish, which is outstanding. -aem

When the Balduccis were still alive and ran the place, it was
wonderful. I lived 3 blocks from there and Balducci's and the
Jefferson Market were my main markets. The older generation either
died or were out of the day to day operations as the years went by and
by the late 80s the place sucked. They sold to an investment company
of some sort, IIRC, in the 90s, and it was all over but the name.

The 1970s were their golden years. My springtime was measured by their
shad roe, my summer by their wonderful array of fresh produce & herbs
(those fresh herbs were not always easy to find in those days), my
fall by the wonderful bakery items and my winter by all the holiday
goodies they stocked.

By 1980, or maybe a bit earlier, I was getting most of my delights
from the Union Square Greenmarket. Much cheaper than Balducci's. More
fun, too.
