Mario,
Thanks to you I discovered the joys of saltimbocca.
Thanks to you I am now addicted to it and inflict it on my wife as often as possible while still staying married.
When watching Iron Chef, I jumped off the couch and started screaming when you started in on a lobster version.
The question then is - what's the ultimate saltimbocca?
If you wanted to send somebody over the moon (and perhaps get them in the mood), even if you have to start at noon and kill all of your own food, something that'll make 'em swoon and get the right attitude.
Thanks
Joe

If someone writes a book about restaurants and nobody reads it, will it produce a 10 page thread?

sadly the worlds best saltimbocca is not just a recipe it is a place... you need to go to la carbonara in rome and eat it there... no apologies, everything they get there sings rome like caruso sang napoli and you just cannot make it the same here in the us.... 2nd choice lupa on thompson st in nyc where mark ladner has made a lifestyle out of personalizing roman classics without them tasting translated at all
