Special Lunch with Lunch Specials

Our dad surprised us last week when he picked us up from work and offered to take us for a quick lunch. Since the burger joint Barney's was packed beyond belief, we decided to journey a little further to Pasta Pomodoro. Since we were in a rush we opted for a simple appetizer to share and lunch specials that included an entree and choice of soup or salad.

Our appetizer was Pane All' Aglio, a garlic bread with a tangy, spicy red sauce.

And of course the house bread with pesto olive oil.

For salads, I chose the classic Caesar salad while Monique and my dad chose the Mista salad (organic mixed greens, tomatos, and carrots, gorgonzola cheese, and balsamic vinaigrette.


Dad's Marsala: pan-roasted chicken breast with mushrooms and marsala wine sauce served with organic spinach.

Monique: penne with spicy italian sausage, spinach, and pomodoro sauce

Michelle: ravioli stuffed with ricotta and spinach with a gorgonzola sauce and tossed with spinach and tomato. VERY RICH!!
