It’s been a busy and intense week, Florek’s 45th birthday on Wednesday, our 8th wedding anniversary on Thursday and then a lot of prep for the birthday party I decided to throw for Florek, that was yesterday. It’s lovely to sit on the sofa now with a big mug of tea and rest, now all is done. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Izzie went for a sleepover to her friend’s on Thursday, which meant we were child free and could go and dine in a place that doesn’t have pizza margharita on the menu. I was lucky to book us a table in Osteria Da Pasquale; we’ve been there once before with Steve and Christina, I remember it being good, but can’t recall a single thing we have eaten back then. The dinner we had on Thursday was one of the best meals we’ve had in Italy so far. THAT good! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As soon as we sat down we were greeted with a glass of prosecco and a bag of delicious bread. We quite quickly decided what we wanted to eat, and so I started with scallops with Tropea onions, the dish that Dennis said was exquisite, Florex went for beef tartar, just perfect, not overseasoned, fresh and delicious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then I went for lamb, that day’s special, Florek had a beef fillet, cooked raw, super tender, according to him one of the best steaks ever. My lamb was super tender with a delicious sweet red wine sauce, my only complain was – I had wanted more of it! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The bread was excellent and so were 2 kinds of olive oil served with it, so good( local) that we ended up buying a bottle and I think we’ll open it this evening. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To finish with we had some lovely, wobbly pannacotta and some cannoli (Pasquale is Siciliano). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Only a glass of Bolgheri each, we were being good. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

An excellent meal, I can’t wait to go back. <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
