last Friday evening we went for our weeks grocery shopping at Waltham on our way back home we decided to eat something outside , so many options came to our mind .. Thai or Mexican .Shivam said " lets have Italian", I said "I don't want to have Pizza" , he had this surprised look on his face and said " do you feel Italian food is only about Pizza,Italians Will commit suicide if they hear that " ( hehehe :) well no offense to Italians here ) !! hmmm well I said "that's all I know about Italian food " .So we started looking out for restaurant reviews and saw that La Campania at Waltham had nice reviews so we thought of checking it out and I'm glad we did as I had never tasted anything like food out there and now my opinion about Italian food has changed as well :) Italian food is just not about Pizza :P
La Campania is a very authentic looking Italian restaurant,We reached there around 8 pm in evening , the place was pretty crowded and we were lucky enough to get a place , we were seated out near to the kitchen.The ambiance was relaxing we had this small candle light on our table which was so beautiful .Interior lighting was flattering, the walls were brick, the rooms furnished with farm tables; vases of tulips were scattered throughout the dining rooms. Our waiter brought us a basket of fresh bread; soft and tasty slices of olives and sage, we were each given a saucer with two olives, and olive oil for dipping. A superb beginning!
For Starters We ordered Warm Eggplant Terrine,Layered with Fresh Mozzarella “Affumicato”, Torn Basil, Plum Tomato Ragout which was just awesome .I liked the way it was presented.
Warm Eggplant Terrine
and Shivam had ordered Seared Diver Scallop
Cauliflower and Goat Cheese Puree, Chestnut Vinaigrette
For main course we decided on having Hand-Cut Potato Gnocchi “Trifolati”
Wild Mushrooms, White Truffle Oil which was just amazing.The meal was exquisite.
For dessert, we chose the baked-to-order hot chocolate souffle with vanilla bean gelato and hot chocolate ganache, which was just heavenly.
It was over all a great dinning experience, price wise it is on the higher end but worth the Quality of food they serve.I would surely recommend this place.
