wine, women and more wine

so tonight we met our gal pals Mary & Sheila for dinner at Osteria Langhe. Another amazing meal - and I admit up front that I am already in a groove there with the coniglio.  Sheila and I both ordered the coniglio and Mary and Phil both ordered the porchetta...

on Tuesday they have a "trifecta" menu where the three course prix fixe is extremely reasonably priced.  We all went for that - with the mains named above and various starters- I had the funghi - Phil had the plin - Mary had the snails and Sheila had the gnocchi.... all were fabulous!

the dessert also went two and two with Sheila and I taking down the panna cotta and Mary and Phil going the chocolate route....

here are some photos - OH and a wonderful bottle of Italian Barbaresco courtesy of "uncle" Neil!

Sheila brought the Langhe and we brought a sparkling wine to start-

in order below-  the plin - the gnocchi - the funghi and the lumache

the porchetta and then the coniglio-

the cioccolato and the panna cotta- each times two!

so again a worthy meal - the prix fixe is a fabulous value and the food is beyond good- really really terrific - so tasty! Tomorrow we are off to Northwesern for the National Theater Live production of A View from the Bridge. so stay tuned as usual....
