Sportello - A Little Bit About a Lot of Things A Little Bit About a Lot of Things

October 9, 2014 Sportello

I met a colleague for a business meeting at Sportello – he had never been and I was raving about Sportello, saying that he had to try the place that has my favorite bolognese. He might be a hard sell as his mom makes the best bolognese he’s ever had.

Sportello is run by Executive Chef Colin Lynch and Chef de Cuisine David Cavilla. Cavilla has been part of the Barbara Lynch Gruppo for some time, working at B&G oysters, The Butcher Shop, Stir, and now Sportello.

All the pastas on the menu look delicious – and while I do love the bolognese, I like to try other dishes as well. So I decided to get two half orders of pasta, one of course being the tagliatelle bolognese (pictured above).

Garganelli with Italian sausage and pecorino. I really enjoyed this dish, the pasta was cooked perfectly al dente.

We decided to split the coconut cake ($6) which was light as air. It had just the right amount of sweetness – because you know how sickly sweet coconut desserts can be…and delicious, creamy frosting.
