Message: [QUOTE="8893, post: 466746, member: 93"] [SIZE=4][FONT=book antiqua][COLOR=#000000]I can report a triumphant return to Da Legna for a major feast last night. We had a large group so I got to sample six different pies and several small plates and salads.[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE] [SIZE=4][FONT=book antiqua][COLOR=#000000]All the pies were excellent. Crowd favorites were the Patata (Mashed Potato, Spinach, Bacon, Mozzarella, Smoked Gouda), Vongole Casino (Onion, Green Peppers, Farmland Bacon, Fresh Shucked Clams, Fresh Mozzarella) and Figa (prosciutto, Gorgonzola cheese, fig preserves, fresh mozzarella, truffle honey). My personal favorite was the house-made sausage and mushroom; I wanted the broccoli rabe and sausage but apparently there is a freeze that is causing problems with broccoli rabe availability, so they were out of broccoli again (as they were when I visited for lunch on Wednesday). The sausage was excellent though, so I'm glad I stuck with it despite the unavailability of the broccoli rabe. The fresh shucked clams on the Vognole Casino were also particularly good.[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE] [SIZE=4][FONT=book antiqua][COLOR=#000000]The clear standout of the small plates was the [COLOR=#000000]Wild Mushroom Quesadilla with Truffle Sour Cream[/COLOR]. Other notables included the [COLOR=#000000]Crispy Slab Bacon with Golden BBQ Sauce[/COLOR], [URL='http://dalegna.com/?menu-food=butternut-squash-ravioli'][COLOR=#47b8b4][COLOR=#000000]Butternut Squash Ravioli[/COLOR][/COLOR][/URL], Baked Meatballs, and Basil Ricotta Gnocchi with Eggplant Caponata. I also had several good bites of different salads, but it's not fair to bring salad into this discussion.[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE] The place is very reasonably priced too. I definitely recommend it.
