So one of the first meals I had with my Dad was in Orvietto, a small town that didn’t really offer much to me. There was a Church, some caves, and some old-towny stuff. I travel for the food!

My new best friend, aka, the stack of travel books my dad carries around, helped us pick out a good local place to eat.

Most of the meal was uneventful, but we were both relatively adventureous with our meat dishes. I got rabbit and he got boar.

My rabbit was more tender, but his boar had a really spunky sauce that I greatly enjoyed. His was also bone free. I wasn’t really pleased with the fact that I had to pick about a dozen, razor sharp bone fragments out of every bite, but it was good.

(I had tortellini in brodo for lunch. I am unhappy to report that it was not as good as the soup I got in Sorrento.)

The rabbit:

{Editors Note: If I get any “omg andrew, you ate a rabbit? i’m never reading your site, like ever ever again! thats cruel!” I wont respond. Sorry, thats not one of the qualms I have. Food is food, cute and furry or not.}
