TABLE FOR ONE: OSTERIA MORINI

A late night pasta craving brought me to Michael White's new Soho Italian joint Osteria Morini last week. The vibe will transport you to Italy, and the food and wine will keep you there.

An appetizer of a selection of street food from Sicily ($8) was tasty and delightful.

Tortellini ($18) filled with meat came with a duck liver panna. This was a very rich and decadent dish, and totally satisfied my pasta craving.
