"Life is a combination of magic and pasta." ~ Federico Fellini
On our way home from vacationing at The Grand Hotel, we happened upon a quaint eatery in Fairhope just in time to enjoy a leisurely lunch on the veranda.
Pinzone's Italian Downtown Restaurant offers authentic regional fare in a casual atmosphere.
The weather was perfect for dining alfresco.
Who could resist homemade bread served with drizzles of olive oil and balsamic vinegar -- especially when accompanied by a sprinkling of fragrant herbs?
Savory Black Italian dressing tops this mixed-green salad with red onion and tomato.
Joe sampled the Lasagne Verdu, a hearty specialty topped with a spinach-cheese blend that includes mozzarella, Parmigiano, ricotta and Romano.
Tucked into the quaint community of Fairhope, Pinzone's offers a culinary escape to a village in Italy.
