Squid ink pasta with calamari, prawns, and ‘Nduja sausage in white wine. $18
Poesia, San Francisco CA
I liked the idea of this dish (since I love squid ink), but it tasted kinda funky. Maybe it was the white wine, but this dish didn’t come together for me. There was an odd flavor that I couldn’t quite resolve.

Fresh burrata cheese served with crostini with ‘Nduja sausage, calabrese olives, salami. $16
Poesia, San Francisco CA
I liked this and thought that it had wonderful flavors, but I was kind of annoyed that the burrata wasn’t center stage. I thought from the menu item that it was going to be a burrata dish, but it was really a big crostini with several ingredients. I liked it, but it wasn’t what I expected.

Roasted golden and red beets, goat cheese, almonds, balsamic vinaigrette. $10
Poesia, San Francisco CA
This beet salad was simple, but nicely presented. The ingredients tasted great together and the textures were wonderful.
Peroni beer.
