Capeo and Cirque

Last night was date night..........we haven't had one of those in.....well I can't remember the last one. It has been some weeks. Went to Cirque Du Soleil Satimbanco http://www.cirquedusoleil.com/ . We also stopped at Ristorante Capeo
http://www.capeo.us/ down the street from the Alltell Arena. We had a spot right in the front of the restaurant in the nook right by the big window facing the street. We were able to people watch which is always fun.......especially when it is COLD and WINDY and calling for a winter storm warning in the south. Dinner was ok for the price. It should have been a lot better. I wouldn't go back. I had:
FRIED FISH
Calamari, Shrimp and Scallops dusted with Flour, fried crisp, and
Drizzled with Balsamic Vinegar

SPAGHETTI CARBONARA
An ancient Roman recipe. This Creamy Spaghetti dish is made with Egg,
Pancetta and Pecorino Cheese
HOUSE SALAD
Mixed Greens with Tomato and Onion tossed with a sweet

The Mr. Had:
THE HUNTER
A variety of sliced Italian meats served with the Chef’s
Own Grilled Italian Sausage accompanied with Condiments
PESTO ALLA CÁPEO
Chestnut Pasta, Broccoli and Potatoes laced with Pesto (a combination of
Basil, Pine Nuts and Parmigiano Reggiano)
Tuscan White Bean Soup
Then we shared a Tiramisu, which was the best part of the meal.

Chestnut Pasta ?-Elaborate

I believe the chestnut pasta was kind of like a wheat noodle that was wide like a lasagna noodle but shorter. He inhaled it so I didn't get a chance to try it.
