    Catch 15 opened almost 2 years now, and features high-quality Italian food and a happy hour that thankfully runs until 8pm. (More DC restaurants should have happy hours that run this late.)

    img_20151223_160145817I arrived at their Friends & Family event Wednesday evening and was greeted with an Amalfi Punch. Later in the evening I switched to Lindeman Cabernet Sauvignon. Their wine list is available here.

    I’m no a big tiramisu fan, and have only ever enjoyed two, including the version at Catch 15. (Ok, the other one was at Art & Soul.)

    The food was excellent, but I’d like to say that it was a pleasure to eat black cod. Yes, I know it’s a West Coast fish and not really a cod. It’s more like an oilier halibut. It’s also called sablefish and in NYC delis it is sold smoked as sable plate. It’s a delicious fish.

    The Risotto di Zucca Gialla con Costatine (pumpkin and shallot risotto with slow-simmered/braised short ribs in red wine reduction) was a well-executed treat with great flavors and textures. Both of the main components were favorites of mine and they also paired well together.
