Join us for the 3rd day of Italy Week, on Tuesday, July 22nd!

Our featured "Speciale" will be: "Risotto ai Frutti di Mare", and is available for ONE day only!

This signature dish is from the region of Veneto and will be a combination of Shallots, garlic, olive oil, and parmesan cheese sauteed in a white wine vegetable broth and tossed with risotto, clams, shrimp, and scallops!

Risotto ai frutti di mare translates to seafood risotto and is a classic Italian dish believed to have originated in the coastal regions of Veneto, particularly Venice, with it's roots tied to the bounty of the Adriatic Sea! While risotto itself has a history dating back to the 16th century, seafood risotto likely emerged as a popular variation in the 18th or 19th century. "Frutti di Mare" is an Italian phrase meaning "fruit of the sea"!
