Chicken Marsala

Restaurant: Ritual, Main Street

The Facts: Lightly breaded, sauteed filet, mushrooms and marsala wine glace served over linguine. Three large tenderloins with button mushrooms over pasta.

Foodie’s Review: The sauce was tasty and thick enough to coat the pasta and chicken well. The mushrooms were a good addition to the dish but it would have been nice to have a more of a variety. The dish was exactly what I would have expected: nothing more, nothing less.

Shrimp Lemon Feta

Restaurant: Ritual, Main Street

The Facts: White Wine, Lemon zest, capers and kalamata olives served over linguine. Five large shrimp are nicely arranged with a slice of lemon.

Foodie’s Review: The dish was beautifully served with reduction sauce artistically decrated on the plate. The flavors were a little overwhelming with all the feta and olives—becoming too salty between the flavors of the feta competition with the flavors of the olives. The flavors brought out from the pasta and shrimp, although rich and distinct, were overshadowed by the cheese and olives.
