First Meal in Sorrento - What an adventure.

So we got back from Capri and were debating on what we should do - go the hotel restaurant again? No. We found this restaurant on Trip Advisor (my holy grail) and it was amazing.

Il Borgo stood out to us because we were looking for some good seafood and they offered to pick you up and drop you off for free. So we made a 9pm reservation and waited in the lobby for the car..... and waited.... and waited. Finally called again at 9:30 and someone on the phone apologized many times and said someone would be there soon.

Finally a car arrived and a middle aged man was driving, he seemed ok but making some dirty jokes etc. which I did not mind but I found it strange that a worker would talk like this.... WELL MY SUSPISONS CAME TRUE AS WE PULLED UP THE RESTAURANT. He was the owner. I called it and when we walked in he treated us like royalty. He gave us the best table in the house on a terrace overlooking the coast and then we dined like KINGS. Some of the best food I have ever had.


First course! Bruschetta and Polenta 


Muscles in a pepper sauce! 


Fish Antipasta! 


Sorrento is known for its lemons and fish. So I got Sea Bass in a Lemon sauce - the fish came out whole and they filleted it at our table. It was delicious. I ate the entire thing and could have eaten a few more... 


Chocolate Almond Cake! Ugh so delicous 


A trip to Sorrento would not be complete without a few shots of Limoncello!
