| - This edition of Excited about Eating takes us to a neighborhood sports bar in the University area of Charlotte, Picasso's Sports Café. This wings and pizza sports bar also features sandwiches, salads, and a list of starters.
Dora here. Tucked into the bottom floor of a ginormous shopping center, we almost missed this place. So glad we didn't because it reminded me of a modern "Cheers." We appreciated that it wasn't dark and stale like some sports bars and offered plenty of tables near the windows. With televisions of all sizes, this cafe would be a great place to catch a game, especially if you get there early like us. lol.
As our starter, we chose the Breadstix with homemade dough, topped with mozzarella and cheddar cheese, garlic butter and served with a side of marinara. This appetizer was great, kind of like a cheese pizza with outstanding dough. Dora here. Yum. Who can complain about a buttery crust and two kinds of cheese? Not me!
For my lunch, I ordered the Wing & Fry Basket, which included 6 garlic parmesan wings and tater tots. The buffalo sauce mixed in with the garlic and parmesan gave the wings quite the kick, really good flavor. The tater tots were crispy, just how I like them.
Dora here. The pepperoni roll was a good balance if you're craving something pizza-ish, not overly doughy or cheesy. But, unless you're really hungry, you might want to share this jumbo roll. Especially if you order the Breadstix appetizer...carb overload. Don't judge! lol.
