Had a lovely dinner with wonderful company, fellowship, food
and of course vino! First visit to
Giovanni’s Ristorante in the Detroit, Michigan area and it felt like going
home. The old family pictures on the
wall and the family environment was so familiar.
We had the Saltimbocca alla Romana and the
evening pasta special, which was Mezzaluna stuffed pasta.
The Saltimboca all
Romana was tender organic veal covered with a white wine cream sauce. The Mezzaluna
was hand stuffed past with ricotta cheese, spinach and pancetta tossed in a
white wine sauce with Swiss chard, house made sausage and porcini mushrooms.
We paired the food with a bottle of “Vino Nobile di Montepulciano”, one of my favorite wines from
southeastern Tuscany. Amazing food wine
that explodes with flavors of cherry, cooked plums, blackberry, blueberry, and
cloves. Bravo!!! Buono!!! Grandissimo!!!
I will be back often to Giovanni’s! Buon Appetito!
