Numero 28 Austin~ "Foodie" Friday – 8/12/16

It’s less than 2 weeks before school starts in Austin. It’s hot, hot so you might not be in the mood for a heavy meal but you want to find  a fun place to enjoy some time with your friends or family. Why not treat yourself to a wonderful place in the heart of downtown on West 2nd Street? You will find find authentic, delicious southern Italian food. What more can you ask for?

NUMERO 28                   http://www.numero28austin.com

It doesn’t matter if you’re looking for a full meal, a little something to eat or just a glass of wine, Numero 28 Austin is THE place to go.  The food is fresh with the flavors of authentic southern Italian cooking with a strong Sicilian accent.  The pizzas are served fresh out of the oven – just like they are in Italy.  In Italy, eating al fresco with friends next to a beautiful garden with delicious food and wine is the best way to enjoy your meal.  That’s exactly what you can do here at Numero 28.

There is a beautiful patio outside where you can take in one of Austin’s liveliest streets while you relax with a glass of wine and whatever you’re in the mood for.  For appetizers try Arancina Tradizionale – a saffron rice ball stuffed with Bolognese sauce, green peas and mozzarella served over tomato sauce.  For an entrée, how about some Porchetta – rolled pork belly slowly cooked with wild herbs and spices, sautéed red cabbage, Italian “salsa verde” with roasted potatoes.  If you’re in the mood for fish try the Tonno Scottato Con Couscous – Sashimi grade seared yellow fin tuna, served with green pepper, basil, mint, parsley, lemon and Sicilian Cous Cous.  

If pizza is what you’re craving, try the Capricciosa with tomato, mozzarella artichoke, mushrooms, olives and cooked ham.  Or, the Austin Pizza made with tomato, jalapeno, sausage and red peppers.  When dessert time comes, how about a slice of Torta al Cioccolato – a flourless chocolate cake or maybe some Panna Cotta ai frutti di Bosco – cooked vanilla cream topped with a mixed berry sauce.  

 

Take some time this weekend to relax while enjoying a delicious, authentic Italian meal in the heart of downtown Austin.
