I've never eaten at Poggio Trattoria, nor have I actually been to Sausalito. I hear good things, but what draws me into this brief collaboration with Poggio is the menu. Not the food, nor the artistry of the preparations or even the creativity of the kitchen. Just the simple, understated beauty of the words. They speak for themselves, so here they are. I promise every word belongs to Poggio; I added nothing.
