CALDESI – Marylebone

Italian – Marylebone 

Another gathering of Emma’s old Uni friends and partners brought us this time to a lovely Italian restaurant called Caldesi. It was my first time here, and as usual with this group of friends, far too much vino was consumed! 

It’s always a blast with these guys, and we did our best to confuse the table waiters by swapping seats every now and again in order to chat with people we’ve not seen for a while. The staff did incredibly well keeping up! I intended to take a few more pictures but ended up getting sucked into the occasion and enjoying the moment. 

After Cicchetti (delicious breads, olives etc) we tucked into our starters and mains, which for me was Beef Carpaccio and Taglionini Truffle, and although we weren’t seated close to each other, Emma and I shared our dishes 50/50 as we always do, which meant I also got to tuck into some Parmigiana and Caldesi Linguini. To be fair, everyone else ended up sharing portions of their meal – tapas style, so it was a very communal meal!

I’d definitely recommend this place based on quality or food and service – from what I can remember (like I said, too much wine)… 

Emma and Alison somehow managed to get lost between the table and restrooms – those two should never be permitted to venture anywhere alone without a responsible adult!
