Pasta Pomodoro

Dinner Date with 3 women

With my stay in San Francisco being unexpectedly extended, a very good family friend of ours, Tita Luz, insisted on treating Car and I for dinner. Since we were headed out to eat, we also invited Tita Rosie which made it a lovely dinner for 4 :D





Bread and Pesto while we wait..
Always love the simplicity of freshly baked bread and no-fuss dips!






my entree.. Gemelli

Gemelli pasta with smoked chicken, sun dried tomatoes, and mushroom in a luscious cream sauce
has to be a new favorite cream based pasta dish of mine! New comfort food!

The bold flavours of the smoked chicken and tangy sun dried tomatoes add a certain punch to the cream sauce which sets it a part from other cream sauce based pastas which have a tendency to be too creamy and you just can't seem to enjoy it anymore after the 4th bite.






Car's Huge Chicken Parmigiana

Served on top of penne pomodoro..a hearty plate we just couldn't get enough of!



Thanks to Tita Rosie and Tita Luz for the amazing food and really good conversations!
