{party} Big Mad Night

It all started with a mutual love of the movie "The Big Night" and an infatuation with the series "Mad Men". If you haven't seen either be prepared to be transformed. "The Big Night", has been on my top ten list of all time favorite movies. It makes me laugh, and salivate all at the same time. "Mad Men" the mid century cool show is just fun! Together with the period dress, music and a strong martini or two it was a night to remember!

lemon asparagus risotto was to die for. ( martinis and bubblegum cigarettes a must!)

ok maybe a few real ones two. Check out this cool case!

Timpano - the celebrated dish from "the big night". Layers of pasta, meatballs, ragu sauce, eggs, prosciutto, bashmel sauce all wrapped in a flakey dough. Amazing.

A wonderful night with friends!
