We went out to our favorite high end Italian restaurant. It's a once or twice a year thing because we go all out and it's not inexpensive. First, the wine, and we also ended up ordering and drinking 2 bottles of San Pellegrino water.
Antipasti was a special 0f braised octopus with olives, capers, teardrop peppers over arugula, and a cold cut plate of bresaola, prosciutto, speck, salami and mortadella, with a bread basket of a Tuscan bread, grissini and cracker bread.
Pasta course was speck and porcini with a thyme and butter sauce over freshly made linguini. We shared an order of that.
Main was a wild boar ragu with a black truffle polenta cake. We ended up taking most of that home because we both felt so full.
I REALLY wanted dessert so we had tirmisu and double espressos. Complimentary limoncello after.
