Basta Pasta


Princi
Tank: Claudie Pierlot

Pasta is not in short supply in Italy; it is often eaten as a primi {first course} before a secondi {second course} of meat or fish and contorni {vegetables}. From ricotta-filled mushroom ravioli or penne Bolognese, each offered a distinctive flavor combination. For lunch, I took a detour to Princi, where marinated chicken salad and colorful vegetables took center stage. Then for a sweet treat, there were plenty of traditional desserts. I took my time sampling the dainty butter cookies {biscotti} from Pasticceria Marchesi.
