New dinner plans for tonight. :)

What would you order?

Supposedly their calamari is outstanding, so I'm assuming we will have some of that. I'm also eying the brussel sprouts and maybe another meaty small plate.

What looks good for you?

Rainbow Trout and I'm not even going to read the rest of the menu! I rarely see it on menus and it's one of my favorite fishes :D

I would like to add that I find Italian cuisine the hardest to deal with these days. It's just so carb heavy. Yes, there are meat dishes like the trout, chicken piccata, etc.. but so much pasta and pizza.

I agree -- Italian is one of the toughest for me. I haven't had pizza since surgery. I know I could, but it just seems a bit like a waste. My dinner at magianos a couple of weeks ago was good, but it is odd going out to Italian and not having bread & pasta or pizza.

I had a bite of my partner's pizza on Saturday night and my thought was, "Huh. I guess I haven't missed this." That was a strange experience.

Give me your address, Gwen. We have a freezer of rainbow trout that we can't give away (sorry, not parting with the ahi for all the tea in China) I like smoked rainbow trout and pan fried, but any other way just doesn't rock my boat

As for the menu, I like the pistachio chicken. Never had it so it sounds intriguing.

If I lived anywhere near you, I'd be over to pick it up!

The braised beef ragu sounds amazing! I'm not really a fan of polenta so I probably just would not have that, but yummmy beef is always good
