Scarpetta

Scarpetta is an Italian place on the West side that Ankur went to for work and fell in love with. He had been wanting to take me there for a few months so this outing with some of our old Duke buddies Shalin, Sree, and Mili was the perfect occasion. The only thing about our night here was that everything about the food was overshadowed by the fact that it was 100F outside and the AC was not working in the restaurant!!!! Truthfully, I don't remember that much about the meal because I was sweating so much! Ankur raves about the spaghetti which we shared as an appetizer, but sadly I wasn't overly impressed. The pastas were fine, all home made and al dente, but perhaps my recent trip to Italy left me a little disapappointed with the food overall. The desserts were a hit though! Panna Cotta and Banana Chocolate Bread Pudding, both excellent.
