For years, Brian and I have wanted to eat at La Rustica. The name is so fitting...a small rustic, family owned Italian eatery located on Beach Drive across the street from the lapping waters of the Puget Sound and right in our beautiful neighborhood of West Seattle.
For our 7th anniversary on Saturday night, we treated each other to dinner....no presents this year, only really good Italian food.
To top it all off....we got to eat outside in early June, a rarity in the Pacific Northwest.
The menu was classic Italian focusing on fresh northwest ingredients.
Our starter......
Caprese di Bufala $12.95
Tomato and fresh Bufala mozzarella served with a basil pesto topped with capers and fresh artichoke hearts and served on a bed of fresh baby greens.
Brian's main....Pollo Salt'imbocca 21.95
Chicken breast topped with fontina cheese, sage and prosciutto, finished with a white wine pan sauce along side a bed of grilled vegetables
My main....
Cannelloni 16.95
Pasta stuffed with chicken, veal and beef, served in tomato sauce and mozarrella
Top it all off with an amazing bottle of wine and you have a phenominal dinner!Enjoy!
Stacy
