As far as being in English. There were a number of ingredients that I was not familiar with many of which could have been rendered easily in English. Also, why mention “Magic Dust” as an ingredient as it gives no information useful to the patron. I have no issue with asking the server the identity of a preparation; but I should not have to guess the makeup of “Magic Dust.”

It really is a quibble (this is the Forum) and we all enjoyed our meal.

Oh, just an FYI for the restaurant...on the new professionally printed summer menu “pappardelle” is not spelled correctly.
Not sure how it was misspelled, but if it had an "a" on the end rather than an "e", it is simply the singular form of that type of pasta.

Do you like it with mushroom or mushrooms?
