National Carbonara Day

Little information I learned recently: April 6th is the National Carbonara day.

It seems to encourage people to cook Carbonara and share the recipe, but when I make carbonara at home, It tends to become too greasy.
Therefore we went to enjoy professionally made Carbonara at 54 Mint, an Italian restaurant in San Francisco.
This restaurant has a impeccable lineup of pasta dishes. Their homemade pasta is fresh and has good texture.

Crispy fried seafood is a MUST at good Italian restaurant! 

Carbonara is a simple dish, but very flavorful.
This Carbonara at 54 Mint was rich but not greasy, especially when I had it with wine.

Wine was Bellone, white wine from Lazio.
Refreshing and easy to drink, and cut the fat of cheese and emphasize the flavor of  the dish.

We ended our lunch with Tiramisu. Perfect.
