| - Oh Postino's how I have missed you!
I remember when I first went to thier original location with my good friend Tyler. Such a quaint location, with a great story and wonderful food. There was live trumpet music and a DJ in the background & I knew I would keep coming back. Which I did, until parking and getting a seat became very very difficult due to the popularity of the restaurant. I continued to go, of course, but much less frequently.
Fast forward several years...My husband and I were gearing up and getting ready to go on a date for brunch. I turned to my trusty YELP and saw they have several locations, 2 of which are close to my home and we chose this one for our Sunday Funday Brunch Date.
It is a lovely location. I am an early bird so there was plenty of parking on the street, however I can see this being a little more complicated for dinner on a date night.
We were greeted immediately and seated just were my hubby wanted, a spot inside with a nice view of the outside. They have these garage doors that can close in the hot weather but allow you to see thier patio. We decided to forego the traditional brunch fare and ordered thier bruschetta and some beer. Our waiter was so very well versed on beers we spoke to him for a while about thier selection. We ended up having a fabulous seasonal beer that had a wonderful toasted flavor due to the way it was made and our waiter filled us in on this process. The food was beautiful, fresh, amazing and made with superb ingredients. I love to order my favorites and leave space for the seasonal offering. The seasonal option had lots of mushroom and truffle oil...it was delish. The mushrooms were almost meaty in flavor and consisteny. We also shared a bacon burrata which I didn't recall having before and I was amazing. It had arugula, which imparted a very fresh flavor, the creaminess of the burrata was a nice contrast in texture to the crispy bacon bits which were plentiful on the bruschetta.
I can't wait to go back and try some more food, beer and wine. =)
