It's always advisable to travel on a full tummy and Sugo Trattoria on the Boulevard fit the bill for this evening's bite of supper prior to adventure's in cinematic exploration with Amelia.
My dinner date declared a dish of housemade pappardelle, rotisserie chicken, wild mushrooms, pistachios in a spicy broth just the ticket for taking on Ms Earhart's intrepid life story while I myself opted for even heartier fayre with the simmering special of slow braised short ribs in a red wine sauce over rigatoni.
Having lunched at Sugo's several times over the past few months, I'd not had an opportunity to sample the cozy, yet stylish Trattoria's dinner menu. Suffice to say this is surely one of the best Monday night pre-movie dining spots in P'Town.
"Defying the impossible, Living the Dream," Amelia Earhart vanished somewhere over the Pacific on July 2nd, 1937, but not before she had astonished the world with her own brand of historic feminine verve for brave solo discovery of the friendly skies.
On film, rather too much of the love story of which who really knew how much of it was true and not nearly enough of the fundamentals of Amelia herself. Though the planes and the clothes and the scenery were pretty fantastic. Kissing Richard Gere then Ewan McGregor, the Richard Gere again can't have been half bad, either and Hilary Swank's styling as the great Amelia was superb.
One thing that really bugged me, however, is not knowing what a solo transatlantic pilot would have to do when she needed to pee?
Just discovered your site. Lots to enjoy here!!
