Tonight's dinner with my visiting in-laws was full of tasty treats, but the greatest of all was the stuffed squash blossoms that I had as my appetizer. Filled with fresh mozzarella, lightly fried, and plated with drizzles of tomato sauce and pesto. As I almost always do when we go to Capannina, I ordered fish. Tonight it was sea bass served with cherry tomatoes, asparagus, and grilled polenta. Yummy.
And because we had special guests, we decided to splurge and have dessert. Of course I insisted on an order of Capannina's to die for profiteroles. These light creme puffs are served with two dipping sauces - chocolate and caramel - and they are heaven on earth. My hubby's choice was molten chocolate cake with hazelnut ice cream.
This was a treatful night indeed. Squash blossom season is a short one - I'll have to try to get back to Capannina again before it's over!
