Sorry for all the delays in posting, we had a crazy summer away from each other, with Michaela in Spain (more about that in the next post!) and Lily in Boston. We all found some time to get together though, when we came up to see Lil in Boston. We found this adorable restaurant named Sportello near the wharf. Just because our lives were hectic during those couple of months didn't mean we forgot about great food! Sportello has a great selection of new-wave Italian food, along with an adorable baking section, which, unfortunately, we were too stuffed to sample.
We started off with some Goat cheese infused butter spread over freshly baked bread. The fig topping added the perfect amount of sweetness to start off our meal.
Michaela and Meg both couldn't choose between the creamy potato gnocci with peas and porcini and the lamb raviloli with mustard greens. So (per usual) they decided to split the dishes.
Although the gnocci was absolutely delicious, after two bites we were already full, leaving very little room to try the lemon semifreddo we ordered. It was too decadent to leave sitting out though, so we all put in a little hard work ;)

After spending 20 indecisive minutes, sending our waitress back and forth three too many times, Lil decided on strozzapreti with braised rabbit, picholine olives, rosemary. Something that seemed too simple to Meg and Michaela but turned out to be arguably the best dish; simple, scrumptious and not too sinfully rich
