This Friday I went to lunch with a friend at Enoteca, a small Italian eatery on South Congress in Austin. It is the casual lunch version of the fancier Vespaio restaurant that is next door. I ordered the spaghetti carbanara and it was amazing. It was rich and creamy and delectable. It was definitely not a low carb option but I had to try it since I have recently discovered pancetta so anything I see with this on the menu has caught my eye lately. Pancetta is an Italian meat basically like bacon except it is not smoked.
My friend Cobbie got the gnocchi with a red sauce which she said was very good. Gnocchi is a pasta that looks more like a dumpling which is made out of potatoes. Enoteca had a good selection of pasta dishes as well as panini sandwiches and medley of antipasto (or appetizers). I didn't try anything else for lunch that day but I will definitely be going back to sample the rest!
