When my Florida family visited over the New Year (2009), they stayed at the Ritz Carlton in White Plains, NY. I commuted to them a couple of times, and the good thing about visiting family is the great food that you get to have.
One of my staples is fried calamari. For a non-fish eater, I am surprised at myself for loving fried calamari. My first encounter with calamari was at Carmine's in the Upper West Side, and I have to say, it was love at first bite. :-)
The Zanaro version of fried calamari came with marinara sauce and a chipotle mayo dip, and half a lemon on the side. Squid when cooked wrong will be leathery. This calamari was perfect, the right amount of crunch and seasoning. It didn't have a fishy taste either. All in all, a good calamari in my book.
I had the Veal Parmigiana for my entree. The meat was tender as veal should be. The pasta on the side was well cooked. The Sunday sauce it came with was red-wine based, and had the right amount of tang and flavor.
Zanaro's is located at 1 Mamaroneck Ave. in White Plains, NY.
