Buon appetito!

I had a tasty meal at a place called Bella Vita Brick Oven Pizza and Italian Restaurant in NYC. It is a small place with enormous charm. 

I had the II Classico which had grilled chicken breast, sun-dried tomato, arugula, fresh mozzarella and roasted peppers for only $7.10. Add a glass of wine and you have yourself a pretty good meal.

"Bella Vita, which means "beutiful life" in Italian, gives New Yorkers a chance to taste a truly rustic, Naples-style pizza without leaving Manhattan. A descendent of several generations of Neapolitan pizziolli (pizza makers), Charles Toufos sought to carry on the tradition of his mother's Old World Italian Valvano family recipes by bringing them to the New World." -bellavitanyc.com

Skip the big chain restaurants and try some the food that is true to New York City, you will not regret it. Great wine and unbelievable Italian cuisine.  Check it out if you are in the area. 

Take me to NYC, I want to go back for more! Alla Salute!
