I was craving constancy -- as well as dinner -- a few weeks ago, so I headed to a spot that over the last fifteen years has build a reputation as a solid neighborhood joint: Carmine's on Penn.
Over the course of several evenings, I ate my way through the chalkboard menu of Italian classics, which includes big servings of minestrone, veal marsala and spaghetti marinara. And I do big: Each dish at Carmine's feeds at least four adults.
But is bigger always better? After a decade and a half, is Carmine's still a neighborhood joint you'd love to find in your neighborhood? Find out tomorrow when the review is posted here.
