Karen, would you please post the recipe for the pork and black-eyed pea chili?
Peep, have you posted your recipe for eggplant parm? I like the way you do it - not drowned in sauce, so you can really taste the eggplant.
Thanks!

I had to google everything you all ate. It sounded like a 5 star night of dining. Thank You.Our dinner was fantastic. Our new find lived up to my expectations and exceeded them. Expensive, but worth the splurge from time to time. I didn't take pictures. We were so excited when we got our appy plates that I didn't even think about it until we had destroyed them dividing them up. I did manage to take a picture of the wine bottle label. Didn't recognize a single bottle on the wine list, but the 1 we got was great so want to try to find it.
Carpaccio de pulpo. The octopus was so tender you could cut it with a fork. I made a guess on how it was prepared and asked. Got pretty close. Marinated, rolled, compacted into a tight roulade, then cooked sous vide, sliced about 1/4 inch thick, served with a lightly dressed arugula salad, with olives, capers and some kind of tiny pickled veges. They were red, yellow, and orange, very sweet. Maybe just formed sweet peppers? I mean TINY, like half the size of a dime.
Second appy was Burrata e Bresaola della Valtellina. Same type of salad.
Craig had Gnocchi alla Sorrentina. Lovely light little clouds. No lead sinkers here. Topped with buffalo moz. Sauce was made with grape tomatoes, so was nicely balanced, not sweet, not acidy.
I had Ravioli di Cinghiale al Burro e Timo, wild boar filled ravioli in a butter thyme sauce. Rich is all I can say.
We traded bites of the gnocchi and pasta, as well as dessert, which was tiramisu and zabaglione, with espresso. The tiramisu was good (I do like mine better though, but I've tinkered with that to get it perfect for us.) but the zabaglione was fantastic! Complimentary small glasses of limoncelli after.
There were a couple of main courses we both wanted to try, but we were stuffed.
Omg Peeps, that's terrible!
Thank God your hubby is ok.
Tooth extractions can lead to very dangerous infections if not careful.
Hope you ALL feel better real soon.
Thank you Sass. EMT wanted him to go to hospital but he wouldn't go. He's doing much better today.
