Gfree Italian Food Exists?!

Hello all!
T actually should be credited for the discovery of this fantastic Italian restaurant that, get this, serves GFREE ITALIAN FOOD. That means gfree pasta and pizza!! Those two words almost never can be placed next to each other unless it happens to be gfree Italian night at home.

You might have guessed that I pretty much flipped out when I heard about this. So, naturally, I had to go try it out with T since she raved about it the last time she went. Her and I as well as some other friends headed down to Davis, CA since this restaurant is only offered in select locations (unfortunately not in Berkeley, but if you're in Davis, you MUST try this place!)

The restaurant is called, Paesanos and it's this dainty, little Italian themed place complete with vintage chandeliers and paintings, outdoor seating with hanging lights as well as old Italian movies projecting on the building wall lined with Italian cypresses. It seriously makes you feel as if you're in Italy (minus all the bikes parked around the area- it's Davis after all!)

Paesanos, I am proud to say, has a designated gfree menu where they have kindly laid out all the gfree food that the chef specially prepares. Not many restaurants that I've been to have a entirely separate gfree menu, so I am extremely impressed by this restaurant.

Now, onto the food!!
                                                               

Kris & T's custom pizza! YUM!
Gemelli Spinachi




Pollo de Modena


Prices are reasonable with pasta ranging around $8-10 and pizza around $11-15 for a gourmet gfree meal. Customer service is fantastic and the atmosphere is great. If you're craving some Italy and want to treat yourself, Paesanos is the way to go! 
Needless to say, T and I had very satisfied stomachs at the end of the meal and you can bet we'll be back! :)

Your blog about Italian food is really awesome and this meal looks delicious. I love Italian food very much and i have tried many italian recipes which i got from YouTube , recipe books and many other website at home . I like visiting Italian restaurants in weekend.

Thank you! We can't wait to discover other gfree Italian restaurants in the future!
