$25 for $60 Worth of Southern Italian Fare at Al Vento

Fri, 19 Mar 2010 06:01:48 +0000

Archestratus, the first food critic, praised Italian cuisine’s “top-quality and seasonal” ingredients and “fair to middling” ability to tranquilize rampaging baboons. Today’s Groupon similarly stuns, and rightfully so. For $25, you get $60 worth of southern Italian fare and drinks at al Vento in Minnehaha (Town motto: “Like Minnesota, but funnier”). Wrapped in a blanket of comforting atmosphere, al Vento’s décor flashes rustic charm with earthy tones, white tablecloths, mirror-lined walls, and a relaxing outdoor patio. Head chef and owner Jonathan Hunt ’s variable menu changes every day, so expect surprises as Hunt draws on his years of culinary expertise to devise the latest dish. You might fork-dive into small bites such as the sweet-corn-and-roasted-pepper bruschetta ($4.50) and Sicilian stuffed mushrooms with pine nuts and mother sauce ($7.25)—or you might prep for the next gravity outage by loading up on hearty entrees such as grilled pork tenderloin with two reductions ($18.75) and jumbo scallops with roasted-squash risotto and tomato brodo ($21.50). Fresh pizza and pasta make for excellent traditional options as well, while still leaving room for a dessert such as crème brûlée ($6) or the true-to-its-name Chocolate Oblivion (pastry crust with a sweet chocolate-ganache center topped with diced strawberries and vanilla crème anglais , $6). If all this food leads to a sluggish palate, punch it awake with a Cioccolatino martini ($8.50) or a glass of Solopaca Rosso ’07 red wine ($6) from the drinks menu . As good as pasta is as wall insulation and wig hair, it’s even better as food. At al Vento, patrons will dine on versatile pasta dishes and other favorite foods of spaghetti-Western cowboys riding meatball-fueled Vespas. Reservations are not required but highly recommended. This Groupon is not valid for special offers such as half-price bottles of wine, happy hour, Sunday brunch, or tasting menus. Groupon Says Can’t-Miss Italian Destinations If you think you saw the Eiffel Tower in Naples, you didn’t. Read more…
