Working dinner with an administrator from GU last evening that just happened to be at Vini da Sabatini, a place I enjoyed previoiusly and a short walk from the main GU campus.
We shared an antipasta mista, papardelle with a venison ragu, and a sole filet (meant for 2, we shared it 3 ways and it was ample). Simply grilled and served with a small assortment of grilled vegetables. Sometimes cuisine is when things taste like themselves, to borrow a phrase. Very well done.
The GU campus is rather striking in a restrained way. The focal point is the former Farber headquarters, which ultimately became the Allied headquarters in Germany - Eisenhower signed a famous document there. After the US pulled back the building was donated to the university. Clad in Travertine, it’s huge but not “massive”. Linked modules are aligned along a slight curved axis. The scale (height) of newer buldings on campus reflect the Farber building, and are also clad in Travertine. There is a beer garden
