Da Pasticcino, Castelnuovo-Rangone

Ristorante Da Pasticcino

Hub found out yesterday morning that he had actually obtained his golf handicap the day he won the Tortelloni d'Argento (last month). So the Teenager will now be alone in his quest. The father will now have to keep practising in order to improve his handicap, for there are still many golf courses in the world that will only accept players with a low handicap.

With the kids at school exceptionally on a Saturday, we decided to celebrate the occasion by lunching out en tête-à-tête. Hub had been meaning to bring me to Ristorante Da Pasticcino near our place for a while now, so why not yesterday?

The restaurant has 3 dining halls one of which looks out to a little patio. The food is good quality Modenese with some focus on Argentinian beef. Prices are normal for the region, the service reasonably attentive and the wine list correct and reasonably priced. In fact, Hub will tell you that during one of their last events they drank alot of good wine in the restaurant which was probably why he kept a good impression of the place. For our meal, we had a bottle of Banfi which was quite lovely indeed.

A toast to Hub's winning his golf handicap - at last!
