| Strozzapreti Boscaiola w wild mushroom & pork ragu - 2+ J's comment > excellent flavor in the sauce and pork ragu; pork very tender; pasta was unfortunately a tad undercooked; mushrooms unfortunately cause extra water to sink to the bottom of the dish, making the sauce slightly watery at the bottom. |
 |
| Spaghetti w lamb sausage, basil & spicy tomato - 2+ J's comment > another very tasty sauce; spaghetti was also slightly undercooked but not as much as the pasta above; lamb sausage flavor not very strong but decent |
 |
| Stuffed Dates: Medjool dates filled with gorgonzola cheese and wrapped in prosciutto, served warm - 2 J's comment > flavor balance way off; the prosciutto barely made a dent in the sweet dates (and I mean so-sweet-it-hurts-your-throat-sweet); cheese completely overwhelmed by the dates, I could barely taste it |
 |
| Tomato basil & pesto soup (small) - 2 J's comment > meh, average; sharp tanginess of tomato, nothing much more |
 |
| Chocolate lava cake - 2+ J's comment > freshly warmed w a very ooey gooey centre; surrounding chocolate cake remained firm, although a tad too firm on the edges touching the ramekin; chocolate heaven |
 |
| Chocolate hazelnut torte - 2 J's comment > kind of like a brownie texture, fluffy-dense; advertised flavors most definitely present |
 |
| Lemon Tiramisu - 2 J's comment > not bad; it's got the lady fingers and mascarpone cheese but no coffee or chocolate, instead a healthy does of lemon; moist w a decent touch of creaminess to it, but despite this, a tad watery at the bottom; lemon flavor quite sour |
 |
| Negroni - 2 J's comment > quite the bitter one this drink... |
