Locanda Verde NYC 🏙️🌿

Roast Chicken Plot-Twist 🍗 Wasn’t gonna order it—roast-chicken PTSD from too many deserts of dry white meat abroad. Server thumped his chest like a cartoon wolf: “Ours is juicy, succulent, never stringy!” ✨ Knife sank in… and instant regret 😅: Leg & breast both sand-dune dry Flavor = fine, but chewing felt like cardio We boxed up the sad bird and named it “Sahara.” Still mystified how they achieved “kinda tender yet totally arid”—culinary Schrödinger? 🤷🏻‍♀️ Birthday Surprise 🌸 Because hubs was turning a year bolder, the house sent out mint-chip gelato. One spoon = arctic breeze of relief 🌱—cool, creamy, peppermint pop rocks. Instant MVP, demolished faster than the candle could melt. Pistachio Cake 🍰🤷🏻‍♀️ Beige slab of “meh.” Zero fireworks, no pistachio pizzazz. Honest advice: pivot to Lady M for a green-layered epiphany 🤣🌺 📍 377 Greenwich St, NY 10013 Moral: come for birthday gelato, skip the desert-dry chicken. #NYCEats #NYCLife #DessertOverBird
