One Million-th?


That sounds about right.

I think this is my one million-th post on Otto, the one restaurant I frequent more than any other in Manhattan. (Excluding bakeries or gelaterias in this count, only full-service restaurants ;).

Last Friday. Escaping out of the pouring rain, straight into the comforts of Otto, dinner with Zubair.

Photos follow below ->

Prosecco and Amaro

Prosecco and Strawberries

Cheese: Baita Friuli, Cow, FRI; Tuada, Sheep, TOS; and Bergkäse, Cow, TREN.

Every cheese plate comes with accompaniments of cherries, apricots, and truffled honey.

Spaghetti con borttaga

And for dessert, one very perfect Olive Oil Copetta, composed of olive oil gelato, lime curd, lilikoi granita, basil syrup, and strawberries. Sugar Rush'ed on SENY.

Note: Just back from another Otto dinner tonight, this time as a sweet belated birthday surprise from Tam (thank you!!). A delicious meal, and composed in a completely different manner from the same menu. Post to come soon :)

Till then, Happy Friday!
