Chef Verlander of the East Village cooked up a beautiful feast in celebration of Sebastian's birthday and Edith's housewarming.
The menu:
Antipasti: Cured meats (S Daniele Proscuitto, Spanish Lomo, Genoa Salami), Olives, Marinated Roasted Peppers, Roasted asparagus, Marinated mushrooms, Caprese
Insalata: Arugula and Mesclun with pears, toasted walnuts, with Roquefort and Dijon vinegarette
Pasta: Pappardelle Bolognese, sauce made with skirt steak, pancetta, ground pork shoulder
Formaggi: Four-year aged Gouda, Humboldt Fog Goat Cheese, Fromager Des Clarines
Dolce: Ice Cream Cake!
I wouldn't mind if Chef Verlander opened up a restaurant - all food was superb. And he sure does not look Italian, but if you were at the table blindfolded, you would think Nonna had made the Pappardelle Bolognese. Absolute perfection.
