While I’m eating my way through Rome, it seemed only fitting to have a post on Nel Centro, one of the best Italian restaurants in Portland. While it is in Hotel Modera, don’t be fooled into thinking this bland hotel food. Nel Centro makes pastas from scratch, fun cocktails and other Northern Italian inspired dishes like their house staple, beet and arugula salad with baked ricotta and toasted hazelnuts. They also have one of the best patios downtown, with big fire pits and a large number of tables {that’s why it is listed on my Where to Dine Al Fresco post!}
Below are a few photos from dinner a few weeks back to celebrate Nel Centro’s 10th Anniversary, complete with delicious food, inventive drinks and great service!
Ciao!
