Philly | Finally Found That Chewy, Homemade Pasta! 🍝✨
Melograno — A random Italian gem my friend found on OpenTable and it was a delicious surprise! It’s BYOB (bring your own bottle), so grab your favorite wine from nearby Vernick Wine Shop or elsewhere before heading in 🍷. 🥗 Antipasti We tried the daily special — a Caesar salad with house-made vinaigrette and cheesy croutons. Simple but thoughtful! 🍝 Pasta 🦀 Granchio — My favorite! Loaded with crab meat and served with tonnarelli — chewy, satisfying, and not heavy. 🍅 Amatriciana — Made with thick bucatini — fun at first, though a bit rich toward the end. Spicy tomato sauce was on point. 🦆 Handkerchief pasta with duck ragù — So good! My friend said it tasted like “pasta sheets” 😂 — hearty and flavorful. 🍖 Secondi Piatti (Mains) 🐟 Daily special fish — A firm white fish with cauliflower and mushrooms in a zesty lemon sauce — delicious! 🐑 Lamb shank — Tender but with a distinct lamb flavor — great if you’re into that. 🍮 Dessert Lemon ginger crème brûlée with sorbet — refreshing and tasty. Tiramisu — solid and reliable. No disappointments here! #PhillyEats #ItalianFood #HomemadePasta #BYOB #FoodieFind #MelogranoPhilly
