Not to give away the farm, but I'm going to start with the best Italian food spot I have found - and it's accessible by boat!Many clients of mine have been sent there when they asked me for great pasta, and all who have taken my advice went out of there way to thank me for the reccomendation. If any of you have experienced this great hidden place, let me know in the comments section below!
The Food:
Serafina makes everything onsite. Their homemade pasta is unbelivable. My favorite meal starts with the Tonno Tartar (sushi grade Yellow Fin Tuna marinated in sesame oil, served over a bed of thin sliced avocado) unless they have the stuffed artichoke available!
I usually follow that with the Fettucine con Panna (fresh spinach fettucine sauted in a cream sauce with Parmigiano cheese), and a glass of "Super Tuscan" or the house cabernet.
Their dessert menu changes at the chef's whim, but if you get there early enough to snag some of the homemade tiramasu, DO IT. It's so light and fluffy, a fork will fall through it by itself!
The Staff:
The staff is quite authentic - my last visit was attended to by a man whoe native tongue is Italian. As such, expect a server who will enjoy being included in the festivities, and may even have a drink (or a shot) with you if asked!
The Info:
Serafina is small - less than 30 tables. Most of the tables are outside (so dress/plan accordingly!) but there are about 6 indoors. They also have a rooftop section which I have never seen in use; however it looks large enough to have a private function for 30+ guests.
