So I have been a food rut and haven't really been inspired to want to try to make something at home. But Chef Pete has totally blown me away with EVo. I don't even know where to start.
Well first the must have drinks are Grapefruit Basil if are looking for something tarte and refreshing but the John mule its all the right notes if you are looking for a little sweet and a favor you just can't pin point.
For Apps: MUST get the Spiced Pork Belly- if you love watermelon salad this take you to a totally different world great texture, right amount of spice, and the home made pickle watermelon rinds.. the well season super tender pork.I can get this all day and just thinking the salty and the crisp sweet watermelon mmmm
The raviolo- is this huge homemade truffle ricotta goodness with the cuper crisp bacon bits to give the salt you need.
Totally something I never had before was their beef heart sandwich which has this amazing homemade mustard seed. My fellow elite Jody favorite was the EVo salad and i love it just as much but the brussel sprout leave were charred to perfection and the micro pear bites was such a better idea then when you get those large slices that you would have to cut. We also had the chicken thigh and bone marrow, equally really good if you are looking for comfort food.
After all this yes we still shared two pasta dishes! How can you not- they all homemade too.
If you are looking spicy you have to get the squid ink pasta- its creamy with a hint of uni favor but the pasta is cooked to perfection and then you get hit with a little heat of spice after every bite, it not too spicy as you keep going so you end up eating the whole thing and realized you forgot to get a bite of the huge crab chunks.
The Fadellini- that classic clam sauce with a twist and it was a lighter version with these beautifully made pasta.
Price point- we under price for the quality and service you are getting here as some of these dishes in Chicago or NYC would be much higher so totally worth checking out.
Great play on texture, hitting all favors of salty, sweet, sour, etc in each dish and honestly hard to bored.
