Green Lip Mussels

Behold, a perfectly crafted entree by my favorite Italian bistro. Green lip mussels in garlic butter sauce. Doesn't this look heavenly? Instead of my usual order of pasta and chicken, I decided to have nothing but appetizers for dinner. I made quick work of these mussels plus a basket of cheesy garlic bread. Throw in balsamic vinegar and oil and it's the perfect meal Everyone else ordered enormous plates of pasta and ravioli. After the meal, everyone had tummies full of pasta and wine but they were too full to drive. I didn't feel quite full but I was pleased with my meal. I suddenly feel like watching The Sopranos. The last time I did, I got hooked on zupa di mussels.
