NO EYEBALLS PLEASE

Tonight (Sunday, July 10, 2011), we had dinner at Café Del Porto.  This restaurant doesn’t have a waterfront view, but I can say the food was wonderful.  We both started with a pasta.  Mine was Bolognese and Rex had spaghetti with clam sauce.  There were so many clams in this sauce, I think it was clams with sauce.

For the main dish, I ordered the Sea Bass with olives and tomatoes and Rex ordered the Scaloppini.  When my dish was served, I was surprised.  I wasn’t expecting my Sea Bass to be looking at me.  I will need to make sure in the future to order my food with the caveat of “neinte con gli occhi, per favore!”  In English, “nothing with eyeballs, please!”

The fish was great once Rex took the skin and bones off for me.
