Great Food, Great Company = Great Night

This evening, my friend and I went to an Italian restaurant in town called Bertucci’s, and what a wonderful night we had. The food well made up for the few “obstacles” we encountered (the gusts of wind we faced on our walk over and the 20 minute wait for a table).

We started off with delicious focaccia bread that had melted cheese and came with a tomato dipping sauce on the side. I ordered chicken parmesan for my main dish, and my friend ordered tortellini which was Bertucci’s signature dish. Mine came with the option of soup or salad, and I opted for the minestrone soup. This was very good, and even though my friend’s tortellini dish did not come with soup or salad, our waiter offered her this as part of her meal. She ordered a very nice looking salad.

Both my chicken parmesan and my friend’s tortellini were superb. The waiter told us after the fact that the tortellini dish has 1900 calories in it. I just couldn’t get out of my seat after hearing that. The gym is sounding like a good idea right now.
