When I was there a couple weeks ago, the place was packed! My meal was tasty, satisfying and comforting. Actually, balanced is a much better word to describe the meal. Balanced, because almost every bite was simultaneously sweet, salty, bitter, creamy and crunchy. I drank a half glass of prosecco with the crisp, refreshing salad. The suckling pig paired perfectly with a half glass of Donna Fugata Antilla, a full bodied white recommended by the bartender. I decided on a bowl of chocolate-vanilla swirl ice cream and a drizzle of both espresso laced fudge and intense caramel sauce to top it off. If you find yourself hungry on a Monday night, make a beeline for Park Boulevard.
