Despite the fact that it was available to us, I was overwhelmed by the choices on the full menu. I stuck with the restaurant week menu, and got the calamari, chicken pasta, and chocolate and hazelnut gelato. It was a lot of food! I probably didn't even eat a quarter of my pasta - and that was just what I had. T got the toasted ravs, lasagna (which was seriously rich), and raspberry and lemon sorbet.
Oh, and we had a half bottle of the Santa Margherita pinot grigio. The half bottle of wine was a brilliant idea, by the way. I think all restaurants should have them available. Sometimes it's just the right amount - the baby bear of wine options!
I agree about the half bottles. J orders half-pints of beer at restaurants, not because she is a baby, but because she likes her beer cold :-) It was because of this that I learned you can order one pretty much anywhere! And I love it.
ReplyDeleteThat is a good idea - I never do that. I may have to start!
