Bada Bing, Bada Boom: Pronto Opens Tonite
By Christopher St Cavish, Feb 9th, 2010 | In Nightlife
Pronto opens on the corner of Xiangyang and Julu Lu tonight. It's a "New York-style" Italian restaurant, which, I guess, means red sauce and Italian-American standards. It could even be authentic inauthentic Italian-American food, as all three times I've seen the chef, he's been wearing an old leather jacket. I think that counts for something.
Dishes on their menu, via their PR blurb: "Fried Calamari, Pappardelle Bolognese, Lasagane, Ravioli, Bruschetta, Zuppe De Pesce over Linguine, Chicken Marsala, Veal Milanese and signature dishes such as Pistachio Crusted Rack of Lamb, Snapper Portofino and Jumbo Prawn Scampi."
They already take credit cards, which is nice for a brand-new venue, but there's one catch -- they've gotta be breaded, deep-fried, covered in red sauce, and have a slice of mozz melted over the top. Zing.
