Was able to experience a Chef Dinner starring Rob Mafucci once again and share it with a group of enthusiastic diners! V's Trattoria is my 'go-to home away from home' restaurant.
Unfortunately this is the only photo from the dinner. I was too busy to document this evening because the food and wine were so good. It was definitely something I don't often do as my friends will attest. Sometimes you need to put away the camera and just eat. And I did!
We started with the above Antipasto with a sparkling Rosé and then went to the signature Pappardelle Bolognese with a delicious Shiraz. Both of these were so fitting together that there would be no divorce soon. A choice of Hanger Steak or Salmon came next. My medium rare Hanger Steak was adopted and came home with me. It was perfection and I wanted to savor it in private. I did do a good job on the Pinot Noir that accompanied it though. Dessert was a Chocolate Bread Pudding made even more sumptuous by it's visit to the pizza oven to create a crunch topping. The chocolate and caramel drizzles made this a perfect ending and the homemade Limoncello helped that along also. What a wonderful meal that our group of eleven is still talking about. Chef Rob Mafucci I salute you!
