A cold January night calls for comfort food, Italian style. Thankfully, Restaurant Weeks is on and Sul Verde has an excellent menu filled with comfort food. I went to Sul Verde over the weekend with a friend and we happily settled into the cozy restaurant after a whole day of wind and rain. We were quickly seated by Marco and offered menus. The menu was similar to Island Brasserie in that instead…

Restaurant Weeks is in full swing and I couldn’t be happier! My first stop was Barracuda Grill and it was excellent to say the least. They set the bar pretty high.

When we were home, he slept for the majority of the morning which gave me the perfect opportunity to whip up something delicious…
