| - I worked with a chef, calamari was his favorite cuss word, he would be dead serious and yelling in his Italian accent, "ohh calamari!"
"Oh, calamari!" was what I wanted to yell when I ate at Toscana, it is a true Italian restaurant, not a wanna be, down to the tall, dark, European waiters. This restaurant is a hidden little gem in the Specialty Shops at the Park (gag, what a lame name for shops.) I ordered linguini with shrimp, calamari, clams, mussels & cherry tomatoes. Pretty tasty and for $13, not a bad deal for a pasta dish enough for two and loaded with seafood.
My lunch partner in crime had rigatoni with sausage & peas in a tomato cream sauce. You can't go wrong with anything with heavy cream added!
They have a small express lunch menu for $13, including soup or salad, lunch special and a tea/soda. Not a bad way to spend an afternoon.
