I had a wonderful date last night with my sweet husband! We went to a wonderful little Italian Restaurant called Café Roma.
The restaurant is set in an lovely brick building with jazzy pictures on the walls and Frank Sinatra tunes playing. It is an intimate place to take a date and the food is simply wonderful!
With a full bar, it was a great place to enjoy a dirty vodka martini. Served with its own tiny shaker it the perfect balance of saltiness.
The fresh Caprese appetizer was topped with basil and a balsamic reduction. The perfect bite to start off the meal.
My salad was spinach, candied pecans, mushrooms and gorgonzola dress with a balsamic vinegrette.
My husband had an arugula salad with cucumber, tomato, grilled corn, percutto and pickled red onion. It was dressed with oil, vinegar and cracked pepper.
For his main course he had the special of the day, a hearty Italian sausage lasagna.
I had the catch of the day, mahi-mahi. This beautifully grilled fish was served with oven roasted potatoes and steamed green beans. The gorgeous saffron cream sauce set the dish off perfectly!
To finish the evening we shared delicious piece of tiramisu with raspberry cooli.
Café Roma was a wonderful experience as always and a relaxing way to spend the evening.
We hope to be back soon!
