Wow, wow, wow. I have just returned from such an amazing dinner that it deserves it’s own post. As I mentioned earlier today, BF planned a meal this evening in a surprise restaurant. Now I’m not sure if I mentioned but I am incredibly picky with food, well I don’t know if I would describe it as picky or particular but I like what I like and I don’t really see the need to try new stuff. Hence the blog… Well it turns out that BF has a pretty good handle on my particular ways and chose the most perfect, steph-friendly restaurant for this evening.
We went to Dalla Terra in Covent Garden, an Italian wine bar. I could not be more in love with this place, the food, wine, service, location, and ambience were exquisite. We both chose bruschetta to start, there were two types; tomato & basil and aubergine, ricotta and truffle oil. For our main we shared a cheeseboard, Tim also ordered steak tartar which I surprised myself by trying! Don’t think raw beef is my thing, but at least I gave it a go. Tim chose an expensive red wine, Amerone, he drank this on our first date so it was quite nostalgic. For dessert I had homemade Italian ice cream with fresh strawberries. I literally did not want this evening to finish! For any family reading this, I will be taking you here next time you visit.
