Why he’s dreamy:
Impeccable Italian fare. I never tire of singing this cutie’s praises- the place is comfy yet elegant, the service smooth and knowledgable, the food simply divine…You cannot go wrong with the house special penne with Chianti- and espresso-braised beef, or any of the pasta dishes really, but I go positively weak in the knees for the semolina gnocchi with salsa rosso. Save room for dessert- the chocolate budino (a kind of baked pudding) will send you stumbling into the street sublimely satisfied.
