I have pants and they are fancy.
Last night me and a lady with a blog went to the James Beardiest winning restaurant in town. It was the most butter-drenched, pancetta-filled meal I’ve ever eaten in my life. Butter and pancetta don’t make up any part of my diet on a regular basis, so it was a treat as well.
Let’s go to the food, shall we?
Munson Farm Butternut Squash, Pancetta Crisp and Sage (soup that was wow)
La Tur and Soft Ricotta “Ravioli Rettangolari” with Cure Farm Broccoli, Cipollini Onions and Parmesan “Profumato” (Me: what’s rettangolari? Waiter: rectangular Me: I knew that, I was just testing you)
Butter Roasted Black Grouper, Sunchoke Crema, Pole Beans, Warm Pancetta Vinaigrette (a white flaky fish with the best green beans in the universe)
And then some honeycrisp apple turnovers with vanilla bean gelato for dessert. Oh hell yes.
We also hatched an idea whereby if money were no option, we’d hire a camera crew all wearing Pizza Hut uniforms to burst in at dinnertime and tell everyone that the food they’re eating is from Pizza Hut. Oh, only in dreams.
When we left, I was on a food high. I think I still am. I hope no one notices.
