Piccolo Description:
Since our duty is to inform you as to where to go (and sometimes not to go...) for dinner, we must tell you about Piccolo Ristorante. Otherwise, we would make note of this diminutive spot on a best-kept secret list and keep it to ourselves. Starters include duck prosciutto drizzled with a mild Gorgonzola cream and grilled quail with porcini and Marsala. Diners move on to intriguing dishes such as cassunziei all'Ampezzana (beet-stuffed pasta half-moons with poppy seeds, brown butter and Parmigiano-Reggiano), a specialty of Cortina, Italy; or porcini risotto studded with blueberries. The staff and owners are gracious and the casual, narrow room is filled with candlelit linen-clad tables, its walls lined with Venetian masks and pictures of the city (the one in Italy, that is). The wine list includes an interesting selection of Italian organic wines.
