Soup in Angel

Just had the best soup at a little cafe on Cross Street, Angel.
It was a minestrone with diamond shaped pasta, pancetta and rosemary.  Served with parmesan on top and a couple of pieces of soft, fresh white bread.

Locanda Ottoemezzo

Closest tube: Kensington High Street
Went with Felipe, Peggy and Anna Paula (Felipe's brazilian friend).

Pasta was fantastic - homemade, squid ink pasta with cherry tomatoes and rocket.

I had a saffron and asparagus risotto which they brought to the table in a giant parmesan rind.  They then scraped the parmesan from the rind, stirring it through the warm risotto and essentially cooking the parmesan into the risotto.  Delicious!

18 pound for a pasta, 24 for meat.

Felipe had the beef and it looked perfect.
