Found on many menus with the traditional Caprese pairing - tomatoes and basil, the Spotted Pig currently has a truly seasonal preparation -- sautéed summer squash, heirlooms, pine nuts, basil leaves, drizzled with lovely olive oil. Sure, just a simple riff on the classic salad but that little change makes a world of difference - the rustic, vegetal, green qualities of the summer squash are complemented by the juiciness of the tomatoes and the round creaminess of the cheese. Complemented by a glass of Prosecco -- perfection on a summer eve in Manhattan.
