During Fashion's Night Out, Canaletto gave out free dessert certificates to all the savvy shoppers at Neiman Marcus. Of course, I wouldn't miss out a chance to try a new place. The interior design was classic and clean. Our service person was really nice and attentive. Price point isn't too bad, our entrees were about $20 each.

With this being said, the risotto was slightly on the hard side. I thought risotto was supposed to be soft and creamy. What is the real deal? Does anyone know? Grilled seafood salad was really flavorful. I really liked it, minus all the beans. I couldn't say anything bad about that dessert at all. That scoop of vanilla ice cream was cream and flavorful. All in all, my experience was alright, nothing really good or bad. Wouldn't I go back, maybe but I wouldn't go out of my way.

Yummy. It looks so delicious. I'm so hungry now.
ReplyDeleteYUM that risotto is calling my name...
ReplyDeleteThat all looks amazing. I am starving now!
ReplyDeleteRisotto should be creamy but the rice itself should still be "toothy" (al dente ;-) and a little chewy. You don't want a mushy rice pudding texture.
ReplyDeleteI always love the desserts you pick! hugs ;)
ReplyDeletesoft yes, but not mushy like mashed potato :p
ReplyDeletei just had my dinner and now i'm hungry again!
Those dishes look so good! I am on a seafood kick right now :)
ReplyDeleteThe food looks soooo good! Especially that dessert. :)
ReplyDeleteyum...everything looks soo good. i also prefer my rosotto to be soft/creamy, but have had it on occasion slightly on the al dente side which i've heard might be the more authentic way
