What Rao's does (good, earthy Neapolitan faves: roasted peppers w/raisins (!), pine nuts and mozzarella; seafood salad; pasta w/broccoli rabe & sausage; "Lemon" chicken, e.g.), it does perfectly; as do my other stated faves, Lupa, Il Mulino, etc. with their specialties. There is something to be said for consistency and qualities; no surprises--but, then, againn, no unanticipated thrills, either!! P.S. Il Giglio has become another fave and, given its location with the attendant business fall-off, I suggest a visit
