Well, this place really blew me away. This is gonna be a bit rambling, but I just need to gush about how amazing this place is.
I decided to go here to celebrate Teacher Appreciation Week and treat myself to a nicer dinner than usual. I’m extremely glad I did.
Service:
One of the ways Spinasse shines best is through its incredibly friendly and helpful staff. My server’s name was Aidan, and they were consistently on the mark. They suggested I get half portions of two of the pastas I had trouble deciding between and it was excellent. Furthermore, they also suggested the torta al cioccolato which was absolutely heavenly. If Aidan is any indication of the other staff members, this is one of those rare restaurants where you could say, “surprise me” and be absolutely blown away.
Now onto the food:
I started with the Prosciutto di Parma, and it was the first dish in which I noticed a trend in all their food: Balance. The prosciutto was served with thin apple slices, which isn’t entirely out of the ordinary. However the inclusion of the mustard seeds and the black currant vinaigrette made for a medley of flavors that played together amazingly.
This was followed by a pair of dishes, the funghi salati and the half order of the tajarin Al ragu. Both showed even more of this expert balancing of flavors, and they had been sent out at the same time so that their flavors could also interact. The ragu was exactly what you would want, and the pasta so incredibly delicate that I’m still shocked it was possible to make.
Finally, they brought out my final half-order of Cavatelli, and this dish is something unique to me. It’s comforting in the way a hearty meal is in winter, and yet it’s light in a way that makes it fitting for summer. Typically I think of foods as either one or the other, but this was special, and absolutely knocked it out of the park.
At Aidan’s recommendation, I ordered the torta al cioccolato. They honestly could sell the hazelnuts on their own.
