Oxtail Ragu Gnocchi
Due Lire's Arugula, Fennel, Green Apple and Fig Salad
Due Lire must be the best kept secret in Lincoln Square. There is no particular reason for this phenomenon since it is the finest Italian restaurant north of the levy but Massimo is not crying about it. Massimo is the suave hand behind this gem and your host and your charming sommelier. He is the perfect gentleman and noone would care more for your comfort and apetite!
Every dish in the restaurant is creative and fresh. Every dish is something you have never had before and not pretentious!
The Polenta is crispy on the outside and succulent on the inside, covered with mushroom ragù and finished with rubies of pomegranate.
Balthazar is the current chef and his smile is bright and so charming that you want to have all specials for the day at once.
The décor is minimal and allows you to concentrate on negronis made to order and wines that tickle every diner’s taste buds.
Why there isn’t a line in front of this restaurant on daily bases Ponrizsan will never know but we will be back when the patio opens in late May!
If dessert is not something towards which you gravitate, your mind will be corrupted there. Do not have only thepanna cotta, or only the espresso dessert, or only the tiramisu – by God, spend all your 401k money and have them all! You will retire a happy camper!!!
Now go! Go! We mean it!
