A holiday lunch at Porta — and a goodbye to our food editor Susan, who is (happily!) retiring. Food was terrific. Company was lovely. We will miss Susan.
Bar at Porto. 
Communal tables. 
Wood-fired pizza. 
Bibb salad with gorgonzola and walnuts. 
“Three trees”: radicchio, arugula, Belgian endive, prosciutto, pear and rosemary vinaigrette. 
Robadip-dip (this was killer!) Potato-fennel gratin with Robiola cheese and hazelnuts. Wow! 
Porta. 
Brussels Sprouts pizza. 
Meatball pizza. 
Rita & Mark:
San Marzano tomatoes, vegan mozzarella, vegan parm, garlic, dried oregano, basil, extra virgin olive oil.
My favorite the Carbonara, with egg and guanciale. 
Margarita. 
Susan, Sarah and Alex. 
Kelly-Jane and Chris. 
Me and Bill.
