My husband and I have ventured out to experience 'A Taste of Burlington' this weekend. The event runs from February 22 - March 14th 2010, featuring various restaurants in the Burlington area. Paradiso, featuring Mediterranean cusine, was our first wonderful downtown dinner experience.
I was drawn to the small & quaint atmosphere as soon as we walked through the doors. As we were seated, the hostess walked us by their own concept kitchen so we could really see how the chefs put our meals together. Enjoying wonderful appetizers of a Red Wine Poached Pear Salad & Sicillian Roasted Calmari we were drawn to the wonderful attention to detail which was evident while creating our plates. Our meals of Crab Ravioli & Moroccan Chicken followed, and after my first bite I knew this place was a hidden gem!
The staff were wonderful, not overly pushy, but always present if needed. As we were enjoying our coffee and desserts a guitar duo came out to play for the seated guests. It is evident the owners have created a comfortable and elegant astmosphere, offering gluten free and numerous vegetarian options on the menu.
Paradiso ofers Winemaker's Dinners, a chance to experience a five course gourmet meal complimented by five different wines; Private functions as well as a Chef's Table - which can be brought into your own home.
A wonderful location for a smaller intimate gathering or cocktail party.
