Find My Wife's Short Story?

From Mrs. Irontom: "Please help me locate a short story I heard years ago on NPR. I think it was on Selected Shorts. The story is set in a city (NYC?) and focused on a young male teacher who is invited to dinner at the home of one of the senior girls in his class. The dinner focused on homemade gnocchi that the father made. The father was some sort of military officer or diplomat. Hijinks ensue over dinner conversation, and at the end of the dinner, the girl informs the teacher he's been selected to marry her, and that she and the father are in agreement over her choice."
