San Diego Restaurant Week - 1st Stop Old Venice

It's San Diego restaurant week, so John and I decided to make reservations at a few delicious restaurants around the city.  Last night we checked out Old Venice.  John started off the meal with "Magic Mushrooms", mushrooms stuffed with snow crab, shrimp, and provolone cheese.  I enjoyed a Pesto Caprese appetizer, which was comprised of Buffalo mozzarella, beefsteak tomato, and pesto.  YUM!  Our entrees were super-delicious too!  I got the seafood Risotto, which had shrimp, scallops, fresh fish, mussels, garlic, onion, roma tomatoes, asparagus, and mushrooms in a creamy white wine risotto.  The seafood here in San Diego is always soooo good, any chance I get I order seafood dishes :-)  John's entree was great too - he ordered the Rigatoni Bolognese, which was spicy Italian sausage, onion, mushrooms, and parm cheese in a garlic marinara sauce.  Me and my hot date had a grand time!
