I've been to Carmella's on three occasions. The first was when they just opened and I was ignorant to what an amuse-bouche was. They offered to cook me a striped seabass atop a hot rock on my table, and I was a little overwhelmed.
The second time I went for dinner I had the most delicious pork chop I've had the pleasure of tasting. This was in February for a special Valentine's Day prixe-fixe menu.
The third time was recently, for brunch, and this is the visit that knocked my socks off and prompted me to start Yelping from the mountaintops (or mount). I had a sausage gravy and biscuits dish with a side of bacon. Simple, yet oh so very delicious. My husband had scallops Benedict and was equally impressed. Their dishes had so much flavor and were just so savory. Perfect brunching! The best part? The coffee. French press, two cups, so smooth.
Oh, Carmella's, you can cook me brunch anytime you want!
