After work today, I met up with Dan and our friend Ruth for some dinner before we headed down to ReBar for the latest Brown Derby production. (This time, they were parodying the Dolly Parton classic film, 9 to 5). We met up at Machiavelli on Pine Street.
When I arrived, Ruth was sitting in the tiny bar area waiting for us, sipping some of the house white (Gallo, I believe) - which sounded like the perfect, cheap option to cool off. Dan soon joined us and indulged in the jug wine, after which we headed up to the dining area.
If you've never been, Macchiavelli is a consistent, often packed spot right on the edge of Capitol Hill & Downtown Seattle. Dan & I went there on one of our first dates, but it's so packed on weekends that we rarely go. But it being a weeknight, and one of the closest spots to ReBar, tonight it was perfect.
To go with our dinner, we stepped it up to a $19 bottle of Barbi Secco 2006 white, which we all seemed happy with. Ruth had the Spinach Ravioli ($10.95), Dan ordered the Conchiglie della Casa ($9.50), and I went for the Gnocchi ($10.95). We all cleaned our plates, and drained the bottle, which I take as a good sign that the food & drink was enjoyed by all.
After dinner, we headed down to the show and laughed our asses off.
