| - My husband had bookmarked Spiga Cucina a while ago, the restaurant is a pretty far drive for us but we decided to go on Saturday night. I had made a reservation for us, but we still had to wait for about 10 or so minutes to be seated. Our waiter came by shortly after & gave us time to browse the menu.
I ordered the Tagliatelle Gambari -- pasta with shrimp, garlic, shallots, tomatoes, & spinach tossed in a white wine-garlic butter sauce. My husband got the Spaghetti Amore -- pasta with chicken & roasted red peppers in a sundried tomato cream sauce.
The Tagliatelle was light and tasty, it was a good summer pasta dish. If I got it again, I'd ask for it to be made without the tomatoes. The Spaghetti was a bit heavier with the cream sauce but also tasty. We had leftovers of both pasta dishes and while I normally leave those for my husband, I actually ate both of these!
Whenever I see creme brûlée on the menu, I can't help but ordering it. This dessert here was darn near perfect! It was light and creamy, super tasty. My husband is a take-it or leave-it kind of person when it comes to dessert but he actually ate half of this creme brûlée!
Overall, if you're looking for an Italian restaurant in the area, I'd recommend checking out Spiga Cucina. I'm not sure when we will make a trek back out that far north, but whenever we do, I already know what I am definitely getting .. the creme brûlée of course!
