This weekend I was at a restaurant called Da Nico. It was Delish. (ok, i'll stop with the jokes)...

Anyway, it was made better by the fact that it was more or less a spontaneous experience since there was no original intention to go there. The matire' des were quick, courteous and well dressed (yeah, I know...).

Beyond that I have to say the food turned out quite well. We dove right into several antipasti dishes of portebello mushrooms, homemade mozzarella & tomatoes and calimari. I opted for one of the day's specials, a lamb chop with broccoli rabe and a Charlie Brown Christmas tree sized stalk of rosemary (alas, no red ornament). The super size portion of lamb was tear-inducingly tender and each subsequent bite caused further crying. That's ok, I had Pellegrino and Chianti to wash them away with.
