The Frutti di Mare con Aragosta served fra Diavolo-style is a stunning plate of fresh Maine lobster and seafood from shrimp to clams sautéed over a bed of house-made linguine dressed in Christini’s secret recipe for spicy pescatore sauce. Another wonderful seafood option is the Spigola Alla Christini. It’s a perfect catch with a pan-seared portion of fresh-caught Chilean sea bass served with a sublime shrimp risotto in a savory lobster tarragon sauce.
Meatier options include the Costate di Vitello alla Parmigiana, a prime cut of 16-ounce bone-in veal chop served alla Parmigiana. Vitello con Funghi Morel e Aragosta, veal scaloppine with Morel mushrooms and Maine lobster medallions deglazed with a dry sherry and brandy sauce, is an absolutely brilliant indulgence for Valentine’s Day. Classic Filetto al Barolo, a prime selection cut of filet mignon in a Barolo wine sauce adorned with shitake mushrooms and pearl onions, is another can’t-miss option.
