Ciao Bella Happy Hour Can't Be Beat

Ciao Bella has Happy Hour specials Sunday through Thursday in the bar, including 1/2 price bar menu and daily drink specials.



I went yesterday with a friend and we asked Chef what he was serving. He said Scallops and Italian Nachos, so we ordered both. The scallops were seared and served over a wine glaze - yum!. We were pleasantly surprised at the amount of food on the Italian Nachos. They were incredible!




We ordered the Tuesday special: Sgrappino, an Italian cocktail, which was a mixture of prosecco, vodka, lemon gelato and mint leaves first, which was really rich and creamy but wanted to try something different next. So we had a glass of the Bogle Sirah, which was 1/2 price - even better!

Finally, I wanted to order a pizza to take home for the hubby, but couldn't decide between two, so Anne Marie suggested I split the difference and order a 1/2 and 1/2. I got the he Caldo Docle, topped with pineapple and coppa ham and the Macedonian, which is gyro meat, spinach, goat cheese, pine nuts and sun-dried tomatoes. Both incredible choices and equally as rich.

I can't wait to go back for Martini Monday!

My favorite Low Carb Lunch/Mosa

My favorite low carb lunch is the beef and green beans at Mosa. The flavor is unbeatable and the sauce is homemade daily by Mr. Eddie. Also, they make their food to order, so I can order light sauce and save on the calories too. They also have brown rice option, which most don't offer.
