Cucina Toscana

A few weeks ago we had the opportunity to go to a fun and unique restaurant called Cucina Toscana in SLC.  We met up with the Carnesecca's, who moved to Morgan, along with some other friends.  One of our friends, the Cahoons, had a connection with the owner of the restaurant (he knows her parents well).  His name is Walter (pronounced Valter) and he greeted all the women with a kiss on the cheek, Italian style, and ordered for us all.  I wish I got a picture of him...he had a very gregarious personality! Anyway, it turned into a 3 hour dinner, with course after course. We weren't sure when it was going to stop!  Some of my favorites were the bread w/yummy dipping sauce, bruschetta, a specialty drink of some kind, the salmon, and of course the thick rich chocolate which we thought was hot cocoa (so we drank it) but was actually the sauce to the ice cream they hadn't brought out yet!  The food below is only part of the dinner we got.  It was so good and so fun to just be served their very best dishes.  It was a very memorable night, with lots of laughs, and FULL stomachs.
