NICOLA’S ~ ITALIAN WITH A TWIST - MAY 5, 2010
The Lunch Bunch would like to invite all Newcomers to our final luncheon of the season at Nicola’s Restaurant. Nicola’s is located at 5704 Oleander Drive in Wilmington. We will meet at 11:30 for a cash bar, with lunch being served at noon. Chef Nicolas (Nick) Pittari was born in New York, but travelled to Sicily as a child to experience genuine Italian food. At Nicola’s he recreates the dishes of his youth, with fresh homemade pasta, breads and other fine ingredients. Nick was named second best chef in Wilmington last year in the Star News contest. We are offering this luncheon at $17.00 per person, inclusive. All lunches are served with a choice of one beverage – sweet tea, soda or coffee.
Lunch begins with a traditional house salad of mixed greens, tomatoes, carrots, onion and cucumber dressed with lemon-basil vinaigrette.
