The heart of true Italian cuisine is its simplicity – the carefully selected ingredients complimenting one another while retaining their own distinct flavors, but never overwhelming the palate with an overabundance of tastes.
Simple the list of ingredients may be, but perfecting the art of blending these flavors and aromas to create authentic Italian dishes is the work of an artisan adhering to recipes passed down through generations.
South Tampa’s Vino E Pasta restaurant has become renowned for taking these simple staples of Italian cuisine; namely exquisite pastas, fresh Italian sauces and sumptuous wines, and creating beautifully subtle Italian dishes bursting with tantalizing Mediterranean flavors.
At Vino E Pasta you even get to join in on the culinary process: Choose the style of the hand-made pastas (long strand capellini, fettuccine, spaghetti, etc. and short pasta rigatoni, penne, ravioli, etc.) you wish, and match it to one of the many delicious sauces to create your own personalized dish.
If the selection and choices are all a bit too daunting, Vino E Pasta’s extensive menu has a range of mouthwatering entrees and daily specials, such as Veal Piccata, Filet Mignon in Cacciatori Sauce, Chicken Marsala, and Snapper Livornese.
As the Italians say, “Dinner without wine is like a day without sunshine” and to complete your perfect Italian dinner there are 50 wines to provide the perfect accompaniment to your dinner. Luscious Sangiovese’s, lively Chianti’s, subtle Valpolicella’s and bright Pinot Grigio’s – you’re guaranteed to find the ideal bottle or glass to bring out the best in your meal.
