    While on our honeymoon and staying in Vicenza, my wife and I had a hard time finding anything open…read moreon a Monday, with most stores and all big tourist sites closed. Restaurants were a bit better, and with some online research we found a couple spots that were (hopefully) open, and if not they were in an area where we'd be able to find *something* open within a short walk. Al Ritrovo was our first choice, and was very close to a stop for the #1 bus, right next to the Duomo, with a nice patio and modern looking interior (it opened in 2013), although we chose the patio on a beautiful evening. They must have been rocking 90s on 9 on Sirius, because Gangster's Paradise was playing when we arrived, followed by the Spice Girls' "Stop", and then "Da Funk" by Daft Punk, which I was very much down with. The kitchen wasn't going to be open for another 20m, so we took a look at their drink list and I picked a bottle of their valpolicella riposa. Wine came out with a glass of salted peanuts to hold us over. The valpolicella was very enjoyable, with slight tannin hit on the front, but with a smooth finish, and warm down the throat thanks to the 15.5% punch of this Venetian wine. I went with the fresh pasta and duck to start, and a signature Vicentini/Venetian dish - salted cod and polenta, or baccala. The pasta and duck were fantastic; the pasta was fresh, just slightly eggy and perfectly cooked. The duck was chopped and also cooked to just the right doneness, being moist enough to not need the sauce to save it. Speaking of which, the cream sauce was used with a light hand, with just enough to evenly coat everything but not eclipsing the pasta or duck. The cod and polenta was a bit disappointing presentation-wise, and was fine on execution, but didn't have the wow factor of the duck. The salt cod was in a creamy sauce but still maintained some of its distinct dried fish texture. The polenta had a slightly different flavour compared to most I've had, but I couldn't quite place it, and it wasn't bad. Could have just been the kind of polenta or a better quality than is available back home, and I just wasn't used to it. Service was attentive and professional. Wherever you're staying in Vicenza, you definitely want to swing by Al Ritrovo for some very well done traditional dishes at this modern restaurant.

    I came across Al Ritrovo by accident, just touring the Piazzett. My intention were to dine at…read moreanother Italian restaurant, but the parking threw me of course and ended up at Al Rittrovo, the food was excellent! They offered a glass of wine with my meal, and it was excellent. It is the first time, I have enjoyed wine with a meal. There were many courses on the menu, but being the typical American, I was just interested in one plate, which was Spaghetti with seafood. It was delicious! I really wanted to dine outside, but all the tables were reserved. I would definitely return and try the other dishes.

    This place is extremely underrated! First time here and the first impression, the restaurant was…read moreclean, beautiful decor, lots of seating options both indoor and outdoor. They have all you can eat options for lunch and dinner as well as a LARGE sit down menu. They have everything from Chinese food to Japanese food and delicious Italian deserts. I loved that they even had "baby" menu options. They also have liquor, beer and wine. The food was extremely fresh, came out quickly with great portion sizes. The prices were incredible. Highly recommend you try it.

But I'm flexible, so I "enjoy" Chinese food when I'm dining with friends who suggest Chinese. It was a friend who led me to China Town. We opted to order off the menu instead of the buffet. The hot and sour soup was a little different than what I'm used to, but it was a pleasing (if peppery) flavor. I enjoyed it. My main dish, however, was MORE bland and boring than I've ever had. No problem, right? just mix in some hot oil and give it a minute to sink in, right? Except they don't have any hot oil available (what?!?). My eggroll was soggy, chewy, and tasted frozen. I'm gonna guess they grabbed it from a vat on the buffet (that's what I would have done..) If you're into quantity (buffet) or just reallllllly like Chinese food, no matter what, then maybe you'll enjoy it. But if you're the slightest bit snobby about it, there's nothin' to see here.
