I really screwed up! We went to our favorite local Italian restaurant tonight because I had dental surgery (an implant) and could only eat soft food. Pasta was perfect. Unfortunately, we forgot our “Restaurant Challenge”. Now we can’t go back for a year – and all I had was a bowl of pasta.
Canaletto
208 East 60th Street
212-317-9192
Fortunately, I was able to have the great breadsticks (best in the City) as well as the Pasta with Tomato-Basil Sauce. Christina had her favorite Veal Milanese - a butterflied, breaded veal chop with tri-color salad on top. It’s really good, with a fresh salad and not at all oily.
Other favorites that I won’t be able to have for a year include Osso Bucco and roasted chicken with garlic and oil.
Overall, Canaletto is a wonderful neighborhood, and family place, where you always feel welcome. They are full, or almost full, every night with local people. The Maitre D’, Brad remembers everybody and they still follow the old traditions and buy you a drink after dinner.
