Milford, CT Exit 36 : If you want to know what Italian food tastes like in Italy, let Riccardo (whose Momma and family are still back in Sardinia) cook for you.
You could start with fresh mozzarella, tomatoes, greens, onions, with a warm balsamic dressing or eggplant rollitini (yum!). Pasta is light and authentic as in orecchiette with sausage, broccoli rabe, olives or try cannellini beans in a white wine butter sauce and there’s brick oven pizzas too (truffle oil, gorgonzola, prosciutto). The classic mains include chicken parmigiana and veal, or you can try swordfish Mediterranean: eggplant, tomatoes, olives, and polenta drizzled with balsamic reduction.
A baci ball dessert was the perfect ending (and shareable), or have a fruit sorbet (lemon, mango, coconut) to wash it all down.
