Had a fantastic lunch at Amore Victoria in Uptown Minneapolis yesterday. I've loved this restaurant every time I've eaten there over the last several years. Near the lake, it offers a cozy ambiance and some smashing Italian. It's the flavor that really sets it apart from other restaurants.
The focus isn't on the pasta in the dish per se, but rather on all the other things in the dish that make the pasta taste amazing. Any of their dishes with Italian sausage are flat out fabulous--a rich blend of savoury with a kick of spice. The sauces aren't heavy, but they are full. There's onion, garlic, tomato, peppers, muchrooms . . .whatever they mention, it's there as a real food item to enjoy.
Desserts: Pass on everything but the chocolate cake. Eat the cake. Eat the tiramasu if you must. The mango cheesecake is BORING! Don't bother with that. Oh, and the after dinner coffee is served by the stein, which is interesting.
Writing, wandering, and reading far too much--this blog is home to the things I've found along the way. Expect links, lulz, cool tools, and great places to be reviewed.
