L'il Italy!!


 






I am a fan of Italian food ... i like the soft pastas and the mildly flavored sauces... I love the thin crust pizzas ... i love the nice hot soups and i love the Bruschettas !! .....  

There is this great Italian place called 'Little Italy', in Kormangala and in Indiranagar and in Jayanagar [its called Eurasia].
It is a pure vegetarian Italian restaurant which also serves a little bit of Mexican and Israeli .... 

The first thing that hits you when you enter the place is the ambiance its soft,earthy and sophisticated at the same time. The balance is incredible !!
Soft lighting, gleaming tables ... the wall mountings and the decorations are interesting... You automatically relax there, that is something a very few restuarents can do. 

The food, what can i say ... Yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm !!! Its always well cooked and the variety is amazing and you leave with a warm tummy !! :)
We usually start with a Bruschetta .... they have an interesting selection of garlic breads .. all of them warm from the oven... and tastes heavenly... 
The main course is usually a pizza and Pasta .... they have a mind boggling selection ... its so difficult to choose , they have descriptions in the menu but you cant seem to choose :P
I like anything a tad spicy .. so i go with Pickles and Jalapeno toppings ... The pizzas are thin crusts and they are totally worth it , they are light and yummy , the cheese is soft and stringy!!
The pastas are served in a big bowl , one person cant finish it !! 
If you want to try the Mexican , try the Mexican Rice !! Its yummy .. its wild rice with beans and a spicy sauce !! 

The bar has a good selection of mocktails , they have quite a few surprises , the cocktails rock !! 
The desserts are mouthwatering, there is something called as 'Chocolate Avalance' , its pure sin !! ... Chocolate cakes,ice cream,sauce,choco chips... nuts ... My god !! 

The place is expensive , believe you me .. you cant visit too frequently but once is a while when a celebratory dinner is in order .. head out splurge !! 
Its one of those places you should not miss , the quiet smiling service,the relaxed atmosphere and the good food ... 

Food: 4/5
Money: ~2500 for 2
