Magnificent Maggianos

My first food blog is about one of my favorite restaurants - Maggiano's!! The first dish we had was bread with a crispy outside yet a soft inside. The best salad I ever had was their Caesar Salad! It had crispy lettuce, parmesan cheese, and just the right amount of creamy Caesar dressing. The main dish was their Mom's Lasagna with meat sauce. The meat sauce was spicy but had just the right heat. It was a BIG portion, not even I could eat all of it. The kids meal comes with delicious vanilla ice cream or lemon cookies. The cookies were good but I could have done without the chocolate on top. It was my Mom's birthday dinner so we also got the Mini Dessert Sampler. It had Creme Brulee, Tiramisu, Apple Crostada, Chocolate Zuccotto Cake, and New York Style Cheesecake. The creme brulee had a nice crust on top and a perfect creamy center. I myself did not like the tiramisu because of the coffee taste. The apple crostada with vanilla ice cream was just right. The cheesecake was my favorite because of the creamy cheesecake and the whipped cream on top. The presentation of the desserts was amazing! On your way out make sure to get one of the mints - if you have the room!

If you go to the Maggiano's at Cumberland, ask for Gerald. He is one of the best waiters I have ever had!
