Pollo Fortunato

Pollo Fortunato available at Piccolo's on Shrewsbury Street

Restaurant: Piccolo’s, Shrewsbury Street

As it appears in the menu: Sauteed chicken, white mushrooms, spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, capers, roasted garlic and marsala wine sauce over linguine.

The Facts: As Piccolo’s encourage their dishes as made to order, I substituted the linguine with spicy marinara and gemineli.

Foodie’s Review: Spicy! The tender chicken provides a canvas for the perfect compliment of flavors without competing with each other. It is a large portion, plated appealingly, that will be enjoyed as leftovers.

Pollo Con Rappini

Pollo Con Rappini at Piccolo's on Shrewsbury Street

Restaurant: Piccolo’s, Shrewsbury Street

As it appears in the menu: Sauteed chicken, broccoli, roasted garlic, a little red chile, extra virgin olive oil with linguine (added Clem’s sausage as recommended by the server).

The Facts: Generous portion of spaghetti, chicken, crumbled sausage and broccoli served with a light olive oil sauce. At least two meals worth.

Foodie’s Review: It truly tastes like a homemade meal—only better (sorry, dear!. Simple, fresh ingredients, very well prepared. The recommended addition of spicy sausage added just the right flavor and consistency. Looking forward to tomorrow’s left overs.
