What is the dress code for Zozo's? My husband only wants to pack shorts!

Shorts are fine - not "I just left the beach shorts" but regular nice shorts. We ate there for my birthday and I think every man was wearing shorts and a polo/"tropical" short sleeved shirt.

Ditto what Pia said. The 2 men in our party all wore khaki shorts.

Yup...you'll see some dressier people, but nice shorts and a nice shirt goes. If you by chance get a reservation downstairs, ask if they can serve you at the bar. We did that in April when we couldn't get a table one night. Their orange salad it excellent and my hubby loves their lobster ravioli.

Pasta with little tiny baby crunchy frogs? "We use only the finest baby frogs, dew picked and flown from Iraq, cleansed in finest quality spring water, lightly killed, and then sealed in a succulent Swiss quintuple smooth treble cream milk chocolate envelope and lovingly frosted with glucose."

Actually, they have a picture buried on their web site (thanks Google Image search):

"RIGATONI DI BAMBINO
HOT ITALIAN SAUSAGE, BROCCOLI, PLUM TOMATOES WITH
ROASTED GARLIC AND EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL"

I found a reference to a type of pasta called "Rigatonu di Bambini." But, I think this is just a preparation of stuffed rigatoni, rather than a particular type of pasta. Looks intriguing.

Rigatoni is a kind of pasta, just like spaghetti, fettuccine, penne, ravioli, farfalle, fusilli and so on
But Bambino is a child, so I think it's quite bad taste to name a dish like that.
Even if the look is better than the sound

Perhaps "rigatini" would be a more appropriate name for a smaller version of rigatoni? :lol: ....mia
