St. Louis: JF Sanfilippos

After the rather late lunch I had today, I wanted something light for dinner tonight. In my research, I discovered Ranoush, a Syrian restaurant in the Loop; unfortunately, it required my taking the light rail, which was not a problem. The problem occurred when I reached my stop: The heavens opened and it proceeded to rain heavily until I gave up, turned around, and headed back to my hotel. Next door to my hotel, fortunately, was an Italian restaurant, which wasn't quite what I was in the mood for, but one does have to eat.


I started out with a tomato salad (and I splurged by getting the anchovies):

I also had the Linguini alla Creme di Mare (fresh scallops, shrimp, clams, and mushrooms in a cream sauce):
