A night at Le Gallo Rosa
What a night. A friend and I had arranged to meet each other at Ramsi’s on Bardstown Road, and while standing out front, I decided to move it on over to Le Gallo Rosa. What a great decision.
It was the night before they opened their expansion into the front rooms, and Joe took care of us, as he does everyone. The conversation with Angela flowed before the wine could start, and was better than the wine. Was it better than the food? Answering that question might hurt someone’s feelings, so I’ll leave that as rhetorical.
Angela hadn’t had scallops since she was a kid, nor calamari. So in true ‘Paul’ fashion, I pushed her to try them. Not many better places to try them – Scallops on a bed of figs sprinkled with prosciutto. Amazing! The portions are so huge, we decided to share a main entrée – chicken breast stuffed with a cherry cream sauce. Again, crazy good. Nothing more can be said.
The best of the night, as far as food goes, was the cannoli. She makes the shells, need I say more? Srsly? After desert, we took a quick tour of the renovations, and I can’t wait to go back.
