Capri Cafe
Plodding through snowy slush in New York will never compare to driving along the Amalfi coast, but there are a few places right here in the city that can recreate the authentic southern-Italian flavors. Tribeca’s Capri Cafe offers perfectly cooked pasta, whether it’s olive-infused or just covered in tomato sauce and cheese, and other dishes that are delicious in their simplicity. The desert, of course, doesn’t disappoint, as the cannoli had a delicate lemon flavor to it and the tiramisu reminded me of the one I had in a small restaurant in Trastevere. The owner himself is from Capri and will help cook the food, creating a tiny corner of Italy in the city.

To Katrina, will definitely try this and can’t believe you have to teach me about a great Italian restaurant. When people ask, thinking an Italian like me will have the great secret of life regarding spots in the City, I am always at a loss for words. Now, thanks to you, no longer… But lets try to not make it toooo popular… And to Liv, great jewelry!
