We just can’t get enough Italian food here in Little Rhody. And why should we? It’s one of the most delicious cuisines out there (according to this completely unbiased writer). With that said, there’s a new addition to Lorusso’s Newport, who currently serves breakfast and lunch. They’ve added a Puglia-influenced Italian dinner menu.
The addition came when Stoneacre Pantry owners Christopher Bender and David Crowell joined with Lorusso’s owner, Tony Lorusso. “We have assumed all day-to-day operations for the cafe: breakfast, lunch, brunch as well as dinner,” explains Christopher.
Diners can look forward to a dinner menu that leans towards fresh, natural and wholesome dishes and highlights produce, fish, olive oil based dishes and Burrata bread – trademarks of Puglian cuisine. Think Arugula Salad with lemon and Parmesan, Ricotta Agnolotti with wild ramps and fiddleheads, and Mussels with lemon and parsley. Breakfast and lunch are still on the menu and also have this delicious regional influence, like the Eggplant Sandwich with ricotta, pine nuts and mint.
