dinner at Fornino: red wine (may or may not be vegan); saffron risotto ravioli with lemon peel.

They told me the marinara pizza, the potato gnocchi without butter or Parmesan, and the grilled saffron risotto ravioli without Parmesan could be made vegan. I thought the risotto in the ravioli was suspiciously creamy/cheesy, but I had a couple people eat it and they said they were sure it wasn’t cheese and pretty sure it could be vegan. I am going to ask another couple people before trying it again. If it was vegan, they got an amazing texture and idea for vegan ravioli.
