I ordered the Carbonara and grilled rapini at Enoteca Sociale yesterday. They do take-out if you call it in by phone.
I haven’t had Carbonara in ages. I remember the version at L’Unita 15 years ago.
This version of Carbonara had perfectly al dente pasta. The guanciale was a little crispy, which added to the texture. The sauce was a little salty for me. I think I’ve become a cacio e pepe girl.
Grilled rapini
The rapini and carbonara were a little over $39, including tax.
Enoteca Sociale will make alla gricia or carbonara by request, when it isn’t on the menu.
I was a little peckish, and it was before Sud Forno closes at 7 pm on a Saturday. I stopped by and picked up a panna cotta (around $6.50) and a slice of Torta Della Nonna (around $7/slice, custard and pine nuts ) Both were very good.
Sud Forno also has chocolate mousse, tiramisu, butterscotch budino and a lemon dessert available in verrines. They cost around $6.50 before tax. They are small, maybe 4 ounces/ 1/4 cup, whereas the Crème Caramel at Bakery Pompette must be half a cup.
