unforgettable. while, i visited sotto sopra in 2011, i must say it was a visit that i will remember for the rest of my life. i was visiting baltimore for only a day and staying at the hostel down the street. i walked to the restaurant but it was raining and i only had rather shabby clothes.
i was expecting a cold shoulder after reading reviews online about the quality of the restaurant, but the wait staff was courteous, attentive and warmly polite. i have found this is quite rare for the more up scale restaurants and i feel it reflected the quality of the wait staff.
i ordered the lamb meatballs as an appetizer and i was floored. i haven't tasted meatballs that were that flavorful since i was a child.
for dinner, i had a dish with duck and truffle ravioli. it is not on their menu online currently. but, it was divine. to this day, i dream of that ravioli.
for dessert, i had a scotch and creme brulee. again, superb.
it is rare to experience a meal that combines substance, style and divine taste. sotto sopra gave me that experience.
and, while i may have only been there once, i urge you to try it.
