RAVIOLI AND SOME OTHER GOOD FOOD

Ravioli, talharine e lazanha, estão entre minhas massas preferidas; carnes, peixes, quiches, pães, saladas e aperitivos também podem ser muito saborosos. Gosto muito de um bom restaurante, boa companhia, boa comida e boa bebida. Contar essas experiências neste blog e passar para os amigos certas impressões é poder estender um pouco mais o prazer desses momentos. Espero que apreciem minhas dicas...bon appetit!

Crab ravioli at Bellini Grill


Walking around the streets of Philadelphia is really something that I enjoy a lot, especially in spring, when you can enjoy beautiful colorful trees and splendid blossoming cherry trees. To make this scenario more special, imagine me, on vacation, walking along Broad Street, passing right trough the City Hall and arriving at the Comcast building, where my daughter works, and is waiting to have lunch with me. By the time I got there, she had already decided which restaurant we should go, so there we went.

It was a real pleasure to go to this Bellini Grill Restaurant at 16th street. It had a very pleasant atmosphere; the saloon had huge panels painted with typical Italian landscape, folkloric Italian music was playing, and the waitresses were also very nice. I ordered crab ravioli with pesto cream and sun dried tomatoes and cheese, while Livia ordered white cheese ravioli with shrimp in a white sauce. They were delicious! Very, very good! http://www.bellinigrill.com/

We sat there for a while, ate good food, talked, laugh and enjoyed ourselves until the time she had to go back to work.

Sweet memories :)

Como tudo comecou...

Ravioli ja é uma paixao antiga, daquelas que tocam muito mais o paladar, o olfato e a visão do que o racional propriamente dito; ou seja, o que estou tentando descrever neste blog eh um pouco da "experiencia do usuario de ravioli" para tentar passar para os amigos certas impressoes, profundas e gostosas, que possuo .... ou melhor... que estou adquirindo nesta especiaria.
Tenho como cumplices em minhas empreitadas alguns amantes do ravioli ...Livia, Laerte, Arlete...
Bom, espero que apreciem minhas dicas...bon appetit!
