Dinner at Diane

I am sending this on the unlikely chance it gets posted unlike my other two from earlier today.
So more foodie news. Based on a recommendation from Mario Batali, I treked down to Sorbetteria Castiglione, and waited 30 minutes for it to open. It was worth the wait. The gelati was great, straciatella and baci... Intense flavors.
Then for dinner I picked another Mario recommendation, Ristorante Diane, only a block from my hotel. Not to bore you with details, let me just say that the Lasagna Verdi was WONDERFUL. The pasta was so exceptionally light that it was almost nonexistent.
A light rain fell intermittently today, but with miles of porticoes, an umbrella was not needed.
