Spring is here - at Lombardino's

It is spring for sure - the outdoor farmer's market starts this week. But on last Friday night we experienced the new spring menu at Lombardino's. Oh my too many good things to try in one sitting. Here are the highlights - we will do a full review soon.

BEEF TICINO
Thinly pounded beef tenderloin quickly grill seared & served with baby arugula, lemon, olive oil and Tuscan pecorino $12

ASPARAGUS alla MILANESE
Sauteed asparagus topped with an olive oil-fried organic egg* garnished with Sicilian lemon oil, Garden to Be micro greens& Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese $9

CREAM of FENNEL SOUP
with spicy fennel sausage, tarragon oil and snipped chive $6

SPRING LINGUINI with CLAMS Littleneck
clams sauteed with zucchini, white wine, butter, sweet chili and lemon $20

PHEASANT RAGU
Braised Wisconsin pheasant with white wine, thyme, spinach, pancetta and peas, topped with Parmigiano-Reggiano $19

Can't wait to try the Asparagus, the Spring Linguini and the Pheasant Ragu - just to say the Fennel soup and the Beef Ticino were spectacular. You got to go and try this menu is up until early June.

Happy eating with love
