Misi (Brooklyn)

  • Spinach and Mascarpone Filled Tortelli (brown butter, ricotta salata)

  • Sheep’s Milk Ricotta Filled Occhi (bottarga, lemon): it’s a very simple, one-note dish, but that one-note is spectacular, undeniably. I lean toward restaurants that do a bit more within a single dish, though.

  • Fettuccine (buffalo butter, parmigiano extra vecchio, black pepper): I didn’t love my first few bites, but as the taste mellowed out, it grew on me. And then I ate it as leftovers the next day; both the best and most expensive leftovers I’ve ever had.

  • Olive Oil Gelato: savory ice cream is a cheat code. Very much enjoyed this. But probably not particularly different than any other good gelato places out there.
