As many of you know I am the proud mommy of a newborn baby. This new addition to our family could have very well kept my husband and I trapped in our home. With determination and the will to never live without a great dinner and conversation we have made our way out to several locales.
Last night we ventured out to Stella Sola located in the Heights. The great thing other than the extensive wine selection is that they have a large patio area, so if you have a little one that starts to cry, the noise from the street drowns out the cries until you can calm baby down. I will have to remind you to bring the OFF spray or you will be eaten alive.
For starters I had a new addition to the menu for summer. A Texas beet and tomato salad with goat cheese and a peach vinaigrette. You may be thinking gross, beets?! No, these are not the beets from the can your mother forced you to try before you could say you officially hated them. These are fresh sweet delicious nuggets of color that everyone must try. Don't forget to order a signature cocktail before your entree arrives. I tried the San Remo which was not too sweet nor too sour. Each drink is around $10.
Equipped with clams, shrimp and a lite broth you would think your taste buds were in for a great surprise. The entree of red snapper was rather dry and bland even though it was described as being full of flavor. Surprise...yes.
After desert and bottle of champagne, our dinner came to an end. Whether you are inside or out, Stella Sola is a great place in the Heights for all ages if you play your cards right. We will be back with our little guy again and again.
Deliciously Yours,
The Culinary Cutie
