"After the performance, we met up with our friend Sophia and carried out our weekly tradition of what we call Hot Pasta, which is basically our quest to try every red sauce place in Little Italy, for now, and I guess we’ll branch out to the other neighborhoods when we’ve accomplished that. Our spot was Emilio’s Ballato, and the order was a ’tini, Caesar salad, spaghetti pomodoro, and tiramisu. The food was pretty solid for the red-sauce Italian genre and we sat under a picture of Gwyneth Paltrow."
