(between 15th and 16th
Streets)
Before checking out the Halloween sights and sounds, went to
Rana in The Chelsea Market for dinner. Had been wanting to go to this
restaurant for a while as I was fascinated with their take-out orders of fresh,
homemade pastas.
Surprised to find that it was relatively quiet and empty,
considering that it was Halloween.
We started off with the sautéed shrimp with heirloom beans and rosemary appetizer ($10). Did not mind the beans with the shrimp.
We then shared the squid ink linguine with spicy Maryland
lump crab ($36). Thought the pasta was a bit too al dente for my liking.
We also ordered a side of the roasted Brussels sprouts with
lemon thyme and chilies ($9). Delicious! And it was a perfect accompaniment
with the squid ink pasta!
We washed down our meal with a bottle of the Rosé de Vallée
($44).
Pros:
Allowed us to share pasta dishes.
Cons:
Bit pricey.
Final Thoughts
Glad that I finally tried the food, but nothing exceptional
considering the pricing.
