For the first course, Don Marcos Italian Eatery brings Joe out Polenta Fritti which is a homemade polenta and is fried golden crisp just like fries, seasoned with cracked pepper and parmigiano cheese, served with roasted garlic aioli and marinara sauce. Joe also enjoys the classic app of fresh Italian bread and olive oil. The next dish is one of Joe’s favorite apps from Don Marcos Italian Eatery, Risotta Stuffed Hot Banana Peppers.
This next dish is a old recipe which has been passed down in the Don Marco’s family for over 100 years, the Gnocchi con Capesante. Nona’s homemade potato dumplings with pan seared Sea Scallops, bacon, fresh diced tomato and onion in a white wine cream sauce.
