Before I forget what they were called: I had this amazingly tasty dinner last night. Mushroom Agnolotti in Brandy Cream Sauce. Place: "Ralph's", on 56th & 9th.
And I have to tell you about the service there. When we first arrived, they seated us but did not bring menus for many minutes. When at last a waiter came by, he had menus in hand, but instead of handing them out, he grinned and asked if they'd like "the usual". We were delighted. BethAnn and her apartmentmate Katie had been here once before, and each loved the dishes they ordered so much that they were not considering anything else. They had told me so as we chatted awaiting menus, and the witty waiter had picked up on this. Either that or he remembered them from the one previous visit! For the rest of the evening, the waitstaff lived up to this high start.
I've had "wild mushroom" pastas etc before, and this one was a cut above them. The exotic mushrooms (I've forgotten the exact kind though sadly) for the first time they were worth the hype. Also the sauce was very good. Everything was just great and I may be ordering "the usual" on my next trip, too.
