CAFE CIBO – Italian
A neighbourhood Italian on Fourth Street North running since 1999 under chef Frank Schittino, small enough to feel like someone's own dining room. Antipasti set the tone: calamari fritti, cozze in marinara or white wine, portobello stuffed with crabmeat, cured salmon with red onion and capers. Pasta covers carbonara, aglio e olio, frutti di mare, crab ragu and calamari marinara. Chicken and veal come sorrentino, marsala, piccata or milanese; pork runs to osso bucco and stuffed loin. Lasagna, manicotti and cannelloni bake in the oven. Express pasta lunches weekdays; tiramisu and cannoli finish. Reservations are needed for six or more.
