The best meal I had in Italy (which is saying something), or maybe anywhere. Family run, small, and you need an advance reservation. Ask for the Trovalta pasta (not on menu) and you will be richly rewarded with all sorts of goodies not on the menu - gratis, and meet the entire family.BearsWiin said:
La Familia BearsWiin will be en route from Florence to Rome that day, so we're out
Major trivia item: the St. Regis is where Leland Stanford Jr. (of LSJU) died (it was obviously under a different name then).
I spent a couple of nights for my birthday at the St Regis in NYC a few weeks ago. Absolutely flawless. And I treated myself to the 55 Street Burger, which is prime rib burger with lobster tail.
