A couple of weeks ago, I wrote about my dinner with Dad at Elaia. On Wednesday night, I was joined by my friend M for dinner at Olio, Elaia's wine bar counterpart. We had delicious food: olives as a started, I had the red pepper and ricotta sandwich and M had the Wednesday night lasagne special, and a chocolate cake with coffee gelee and espresso cream for dessert. Delish.
As for the wine, I first asked our waiter to bring me a glass of something red, old world, not too heavy. It was good. For my second glass, I perused the list and picked out a rosy Giacomo Vico nebbiolo. "Interesting choice," the server said. "Oh yeah?" "Yeah, that's the one you just had."
I guess it was a good fit.
Haha! I love that.
