We had a fairly large party the night before. I wish I had taken photos. i made agnolotti with veal and pancetta, in a butter and sage sauce for 9 people. In addition, we started with a smoked salmon fritatta with creme fraiche, herbs and caviar. We finished off dinner with pork ragu over polenta. A delicious meal.

Walking into Fedinando’s is like walking back in time. Or like walking into an old school Sicilian Grandmother’s kitchen. The food here is excellent. Lots of red sauce, lots of riccotta cheese on everything, simple, honest, Italian Food.
Did everyone else think yesterday was tuesday? Arrived home last night to find out a friend was coming to dinner. It was 630, she was arriving at 7. I had fortunately purchased food for dinner so, we just made more. Originally, I was making salmon steaks and some mussel dish but, there was not enough salmon to serve as steaks. We made a quick salmon ravioli. Grilled the salmon, pulled it, wrung in a towel to dry, mixed with a little egg and some goat cheese.
