Americano return trip

Burger Brunch
Salsicce Platter

Having been disappointed in his first outing, our Protagonist was accompanied by a regular on his second visit to Americano.  Based on his dining companion's recommendations, he chose the Burger Brunch, a simple dish of a ground beef patty cooked to order (it could have been ground sirloin, and at the very least ground round) which topped sauteed spinach and mushrooms.  The recipe seemed ripped out of the pages of an Atkins Diet cookbook!  The beef was cooked to the proper medium rare as requested by our Protagonist, the spinach was just wilted without turning into the mushy boiled consistency, and the mushrooms and spinach were seasoned nicely.    The portion was quite generous for lunch and provided a protein-packed meal.  However, his nose was piqued by the aromas coming from his dining companion's plate; the savory Salsicce Platter which also looked quite appetizing.  This proved to be one of the companion's go-to lunches at Americano, and our Protagonist noted it for the future.
