A long time favourite restaurant of ours. I somehow lucked out getting a reservation for this place – literally everything was fully booked even ONE WEEK in advance. I still remember when we first found this hidden gem years ago before they relocated closer to downtown and expanded the space to what it is today.
After being with my husband for so many years, and now a foodie, Valentine’s Day became an excuse for me to create content (besides, love shouldn’t be just celebrated on the one commercial holiday of the year).
[$29] Carbonara – In a previous post, I mentioned trying this pasta out since they no longer offer their daily specials, the vongole (on Friday’s). I’m obviously really pleased with this, so I’ve ordered again, served using linguine. It’s a dish that’s so simple, yet can be easily messed up by scrambling the egg yolk sauce if not done right. It’s one of the few places I know of that offer this particular classic Italian dish. As usual, always satisfied.
[$29] Spicy Marsala – Hubby loves his spicy food, so he chose this. Chicken was meaty, perfectly cooked, and sauce had a nice mushroom-y flavour (not overpowering). Really recommend this one if you want a nice spicy kick.
[$18] Baked Papa Guiseppe Meatballs – First time trying this particular appetizer, and it was AMAZING. The tomato sauce wasn’t too tomato-ey, the meatballs were extremely tender with the right amount of cheesiness. I’m pretty sure after each bite, I literally kept saying, “Omg, this is so good…”😂
Always a highly praised restaurant and consistent in flavour.
