angelini osteria.

lunch @ angelini osteria in la.

back to our favorite italian restaurant for some good food.

started us with a bread basket- their crisps with evoo is really good.. and the amuse bouche pasta salad below, on the house.

i enjoyed a beet salad with arugula and burrata.

b’s blood sausage atop mashed potatoes. there was a delicious gravy, not pictured. this was delicous. i had blood sausage in germany that was too heavy in flavor, and some versions that was too soft in texture.. but angelini’s is just right- a bite of the sausage with a bit of creamy mash and gravy- perfect balance of flavors. not too salty, and the blood flavor was not overpowering.

my favorite pasta. not on the menu anymore, but the chef was still able to make it upon my request.. it’s the “bombolotti all’ amatriciana.” always topped with freshly shaved parmesano at the table.

b’s organic half chicken, with roasted potatoes and veggies. he cleaned the plate.

great food and fast service, without fail.
