| - I JUST HAD THE BEST LUNCH EVER!!!! CARB-TASTIC!!!
I almost feel I should leave this review in two parts.....one for a take-out experience and one later for a dine-in.
Today is the Take-Out.
So, on the suggestion of the Awesome Princess Crystal Dawn.....the conversation went kinda like this :
Damon : I'm hungry.
Crystal : Well, I have a cure for that?
Damon : Oh really?
Crystal : Yes, really, Siena.
Damon : Who's that?
Crystal : It's an AWESOME Italian Deli.
....and history was made. I clocked out for my lunch break eager to feed on something from anywhere new. Walking into Siena is like walking into charm. You are automatically surrounded by deli that could easily be a movie set. I took a number. Ordered the days special Fettuccine and Red Sauce with Chicken and Eggplant. Oh, and 3 canolli. The wait was a little long, but who cares, there was just so much to take in. The hanging sausage, the cheeses, the baked goods tempting me at the front case. Anything and everything you could possibly want and thought you could only find in NYC.
I walk out the door lunch in hand. As I'm driving back to work I realize I can't wait to partake of one of the canolli. Now my roommate constantly touts the beauty of the canollli, but let me tell you, I've had a few,Vegas canolli aren't a beauty....at least until now. All 3 found their way into my mouth before I parked my car. Ummmm...WOW. Why eat anything else EVER!!! Why move on to the (what felt like 5lbs. of pasta) Fettuccine I had actually intended to be my lunch. But I did it, and it was worth it. ( I can't believe I ate the WHOLE thing. ) Now my friends, I need a nap. Next time I'll stay and take more time. Try that beautiful Sicilian pizza they had. Until then canolli wishes and spumoni dreams.
Siena Deli - FOR THE FAMILY, BY THE FAMILY
