Tavolo: A Taste of Italian in Charlotte!




Tavolo: A family style Italian restaurant in the uptown area of Charlotte, NC. Located at 300 North College Street, Tavolo offers fine Italian dining, wood fired pizzas, wine & cocktails, and more! Enjoy a seat at the full service bar, upstairs, or a traditional table in the downstairs dining area!


I recently had the pleasure of tasting this amazing restaurant for myself while working
 in Charlotte with Kelly of Paper Meets Pearl

We started our trip to Tavolo with a few choice martini cocktails: 
the Fragola: vodka, simple syrup, sour mix, fresh strawberries & basil
the Bacio Del Limone: Prosecco, house made Limoncello, fresh raspberries 


 


As we enjoyed these delicious house martinis, we decided to add a few appetizers into the mix. 

Carpaccio De Manzo: thinly sliced beef tenderloin topped with sea salt,
 cracked black pepper, olive oil, arugula & asiago! 


Calamari Alla Diavolo: fried squid with roasted & cherry peppers, 
served with marinara. 


After devouring these delicious appetizers, we were ready for our main course! For our entrees, we chose 2 authentic Italian dishes:

Spaghetti and Meatball: spaghetti served with marinara and 
topped with a beef, pork, and veal meatball.


Lasagna Bolagnese: Lasagna layered with beef, Italian sausage, 
ricotta, mozzarella, and marinara



And just when we thought it couldn't get any better, we threw in some dessert to top it off! 

A delicious portion of Strawberry Cheesecake and Tiramisu! 





I must say I was completely blown away by all the deliciousness going on at Tavolo! It's definitely a MUST while in Charlotte and I know I for one can't wait to get back there! 




Until next time!

Lipstik Girls!

Bethany had an amazing opportunity to model for  Lipstik Girls Clothing  2014 Elisa B. line! From the time she began working with  Gooma Models  she has wanted to work with this company.

We were roasting. We kept pushing on and after a few hours, we had finished this amazing shoot. UPDATE: The first image was listed on Itsy.com for Lipstik Girls / Elisa B. clothing. Shreek!
