There is a first for everything. And this is the first time I have written a blog post about a meal out. We only had an hour, unexpectedly, so went to La Machina Cafe on the recommendation of friends. Quite simple, the best combination of service, food, wine, and atmosphere I have had in many years. The squid ink pasta with bottarga and clams was the highlight of the evening. The chef, Marco Ferrarini, and his staff were both personable and knowledgeable. We will be back. Many times, I think.
The things I discover in the kitchen, or elsewhere, that I enjoy enough to be shared.
