Ricotta Dishes at Locanda Verde, Tribeca NY

So glad I finally got to try an Andrew Carmellini (known for modern Italian cuisine) restaurant - Locanda Verde in Tribeca NY. Ordering brunch here was easy as I knew exactly what to try. That's not to say there aren't a whole bunch of other dishes for lunch or dinner that I want to try. Guess I'll have to go back :)

What I ordered:
  • Sheeps' Milk Ricotta with truffle honey, thyme and burnt orange toast ($15) - so worth the hype and enough to share for any meal. The ricotta was light, fluffy, and complex yet simple. The burnt orange toast was such a genius idea, will have to try the approach at home next time.
  • Lemon Ricotta Pancakes with blueberries and meyer lemon curd ($15) - devoured this light refreshing breakfast dish. It's sad I got so full off the appetizer that I didn't get to finish :(
They served illy espresso drinks but my latte was tiny. Good thing La Colombe is just a couple blocks away!

Next Carmellini restaurant to try: The Dutch (for rabbit pot pie)
