Via Napoli: lunch
We arrived early and checked in with the front desk. It looked pretty busy, but there were many open tables. It was not long before they called us to be seated though and we were taken to a table across from the community table. The water fellow came over and DF tried to order beer when he was asking about water lol. Elena arrived to introduce herself and we went ahead with our order.

We went with our favorite pollo salad and a large sausage pie. The salads may look expensive, but between the 3 of us it costs about what the house salad cost per person. This salad has a sweet and tangy taste and there is plenty of crunch from the cucumbers and crispy wonton garnish. There is also cantaloupe, which is kind of weird in a salad, but it adds a nice sweetness to the tangy after bite.

As we were finishing our last bites of salad our pie arrived. The large piccante-or spicy sausage pie looked very well cooked. Sometimes it gets a little too charred for my liking, but this one was perfect. They call it piccante which is as I understand a spicy sausage, but I dont detect too much heat from the finely ground meat. My only complaint was that the pizza was slightly soggy in the middle, I dont know if it sat too long or didnt get crisped enough in the oven. We only left two slices, so I would definitely say a large pie is most likely enough for 2-3 people sans and appetizer.

We couldnt resist the zeppole for dessert. They are excellent here! I have no time for gelato or any other nonsense, just give me the deep fried fritters-omg! They come with chocolate ganache and freshly whipped barely sweetened whipped cream. Judging from the recipe they look similar to choux pastry and are known as Italian doughnuts. Deep fried butter and eggs-how can you go wrong?

The busser took our bottle of Aqua Panna water and didnt bother to pour the rest in one of our glasses, so that was mildly annoying and wasteful. It wasnt a lot of water, but enough for a few last gulps. Other than that lunch was great, service was good.
