Well I have some guests in town and they wanted to try something new since this whole week I have been taking them to all the usual places I enjoy. So we were walking around Las Canitas late in the evening and they decided to try out this place Novecento, I have seen it before but I had never been there. Well the place is small, the wait staff is pretty cordial and attentive. The prices weren't too high, and they have a lunch menu and a dinner menu with varying dishes and prices. I ordered the Stuffed Chicken Breast, which was delicious. It was stuffed with asparagus, sun dried tomatoes, capers, arugula and fontina cheese. It also had a nice garnish of roasted baby potatoes and asparagus and a few other things, The stuffed chicken breast was cut at an angle and placed standing up on the plate surrounded by a nice sweet and tangy reduction. I was pretty impressed by the quality and taste of the chicken. I generally do not order chicken but this whole week I had been eating nothing but steak and pasta, so I felt like giving my liver a break. Anyway, my guests had a salad and a ceviche, the salad, I was told, came out perfectly, though the ceviche I was told was not up to par. I would recommend this place to anybody who wants to try something a little out of the ordinary. The price for the total meal for all three was about 110 pesos, including drinks and a quesadilla appetizer. My plate was around 28 pesos, I forgot to ask if they deliver.
