(For lunch)~ I had the pappardelle alla norcina con pollo and asked the server if I could add scallops and she said yes! It was GOOD!! It definitely hit the spot :D The only thing I think that needs more work on the dish is that the white wine needs more reduction so the sauce is not too overpowering, other than that, it's spot on :) As for my hubby, he got linguine mare chiaro,...
