I love sharing starters..

… Ideally 2 different ones between 2.  On this occasion, in Bella italia in Victoria,  my friend and I opted to share just one which was the Funghi Arrosto £4.95 which is  baked large field mushrooms in a creamy mascarpone, garlic & spinach sauce, topped with mozzarella and served with toasted ciabatta.  It was quite late by the time we ate so we were starving and reckoned that half a starter would keep us going until our main course.  To be honest, while it was very tasty, it was also incredibly rich and half the serving was definitely enough.  Our waiter was very helpful though and brought us 2 plates to serve it on which made things a little bit easier
