I am RIDICULOUSLY tired and this weekly wrap-up can shed some light on why...
Precap:
My family and I had dinner at a really nice, quaint Italian restaurant in Venice called Ado. It must have been converted from a house because it was a tiny yellow building squished between large apartment complexes (almost like in the movie Up!).
Most of the first floor was taken up by the kitchen, so all six of us sat upstairs on the tiny second floor with about 40 seats all crammed together. The tables were packed tightly together and the only light was provided by candles, which made it super cozy!
Then, the scallops with fondue. They were super huge and expertly seared with a delicious, creamy sauce underneath.
Precap:
- Sights: the errand marathon, travel planning, New York!
- Eats: Ado (Venice), Bruxie waffle sandwiches & NYC food (Shake Shack, Rice to Riches, S'MAC, Momofuku, Jacques Torres Chocolates, Zabar's).

Now to the food! Excuse the pictures because phone + candlelight doesn't make for the best pictures.
Update: I Photoshopped a bit, to make the pictures turn out just a little lighter!
First up, duck carpaccio. It was so super thin, and perfectly balanced with a pile of sweet caramelized onions. We also ordered beef carpaccio, but I thought this was much, much better.
Then, the scallops with fondue. They were super huge and expertly seared with a delicious, creamy sauce underneath.
