We headed over to one of my favorite haunts in the Montrose area of Houston, Paulie’s. I enjoy dining at Paulie’s as the food is great, not like everyone else, the atmosphere is very relaxing and they have a nice wine selection.
I wanted to try something different and since I love pasta and seafood, today was a great day to try Paulie’s Penne & Shrimp Genovese dish.
The pesto sauce was prepared to perfection. Not overly thick, nor soupy. A great texture that clings to the pasta a shrimp. As you know I love cheese but this time I never gave it a thought. Perfect without it! To compliment lunch I paired it with a nice 2006 Badia A Coltibuono Cetamura Chianti. This wine complimented the meal nicely! It’s 100% Saniovese with a nice depth of fruit. You’ll love it!
Paulie’s has a great menu for those that are tired of the same old stuff.
Enjoy my friends!
