This is the second time I preferred a fish dish to the meat dish. The Monkfish was served with lobster mashed potato, Mandarin infused Demi Glaze and an oven roasted tomato. The fish was every bit as good as the Pesce Del Giorno I had at La Terrazza. [...] [...] As good as the beef was, the fish was better.

I am an Italian chef living in Italy. Those first courses are just that, not appetizers, which are called antipasti. An Italian meal can't be defined just like a Canadian or French meal, because the various nutrients are spread out over several EQUAL courses, not a main course more or less adorned with other foods. Strozzapreti generally are quite unlike what you've shown, which is called casareccio here. I made brasato of pork spareribs with polenta for supper last night. Good homey food. What could be wrong with that? It looks fine as an Italian meal, but there are a couple of problems. I am an Italian chef living in Italy.
