dell'anima - another look

Another Friday night and another visit to dell'anima for me and the wife. We've been here a ridiculous amount of times and the food is always spot on. As long as the chef with the Red Sox hat is there, the food will guaranteed to be kick ars.

Our Menu

Lingua ***
cavolo nero, preserved chilies, pimenton anchovy aioli
First dish and it was out of the f'n park - big time wtf moment. The tongue was tender and full flavored and the pepper mayo was so spectacular with the cavolo nero. The texture and flavor combo was out of control good - creamy, sweet, a little spicy, crunchy from the cavolo nero. By far my fave of the night...

MALLOREDDUS **
braised goat, rosemary, pecorinos
Shell type pasta that as usual had the perfect al dente-ness going on. The star for me were the insanely tender flavorful goat that was brought together by the pecorino and rosemary. A great pasta dish and my fave out of the three pastas.

GARGANELLI *
funghi trifolati, lemon, parsley
My wife's favorite pasta dish of the night. Huge mushroom flavor with the lemon brightening up the dish a tremendous amount. As usual, the pasta was spot on.

CASUNZEI *
golden beets, poppy seed brown butter, dried orange, ricotta salata
A good pasta with the sum being much greater than it's parts. The nutty brown butter, sweet dried orange, and salty ricotta salata worked out pretty well.
