Lupa

We had the most delicious foodie adventure yesterday at Mario Batali's Lupa.
Lupa is a Roman style trattoria located in the East Village.

We started with the calamari with farro and salsa verde and the tuna with cannellini beans. Both were so fresh, the perfect way to start the meal.
Next was the ricotta gnocchi with sausage and fennel seeds. What a beautiful combination.
I am noticing the prescence of fennel seeds in a number of dishes I've had so far in NYC.
To finish off I had the tartufo with roasted hazelnuts.
The perfect lunch for a perfect summer day in NYC. I love this city!
