In a fusion-filled LA where escargot and pasta alla carbonara often occupy the same menu page, authentic Italian meals are about as rare as mafia indictments.

With traditional Italian "primi" and "secondi" plates proof of their Italian faith, Angelini Osteria's prices do slant leaning-tower-style toward the expensive, but with dishes like ravioli stuffed with Swiss chard and ricotta, think of what you'll save postponing your next Alitalia flight. One thing to be wary of is that the restaurant is tiny, which makes this popular stop more cramped than the Vatican on Easter Sunday. Make reservations, unless you don't mind getting inebriated slurping their brilliant Fontodi Chianti Classico while watching the crowd at El Coyote across the street meld into a blurry mass.

I ordered the pumpkin tortellini with butter, sage, and asparagus and for dessert, some sort of apple pie with almonds, but I can't remember exactly. This being my second time trying pumpkin ravioli at a restaurant, I've decided that it is a dish I won't be ordering again because I've discovered it's a bit too bland for my taste, both times I've tried it.





Delicious dessert though --if only I could remember what it was. =/
