We are in for a quick bite before we have to head off to what I’m sure will be a very boring strata AGM. No mucking around with starters, straight to the main course.
I thought the special sounded good. A lobster/crab ravioli.
Served with a Limoncello sauce, fennel, arugula and paprika oil.The sauce was light and creamy with the fennel adding a nice subtle, licorice flavour. The filling was a bit on the rich side with the crab overpowering the lobster. The balance in the fillimg was just a bit off.
Merilynn had the Spaghetti Bolognese.
We’ve had this before, and always enjoyed it. I just wish we could get it without the fungus. The Ragu is a rich, meaty sauce with lots of Italian sausage, veal and beef, (and the shrooms) with tons of flavour. You can tell this is a proper Ragu.
Two very good pasta dishes, though both could be improved slightly. Still, I won’t complain. I didn’t have to cook today.
