ITALIAN FOOD
The openings of CICCHETTI, FORCHETTA, CAPISHE’S SOUTHPARK LOCATION, SENSI, OSTERIA LUCA, VOLO, NORTH ITALIA, and INDACO in the last year indicate Charlotte’s robust appetite for Italian. Enjoy carbonara like you’d eat it in Rome or order meatballs and breadsticks at a counter. Sip a glass of Chianti at a Venetianstyle wine bar or take a gelato to go. Any diner can find an experience at any price, and there’s even more to come: Look for ORTO, a new Italian concept from Paul Verica, this spring, and LITTLE MAMA’S, the kid-sister concept to Frank Scibelli’s Mama Ricotta’s, later this year.

The Batch House
Cristina Rojas-Agurcia, a.k.a. The Batchmaker, switched from a home-based operation to a brick-and-mortar shop connected to LaCa Projects last fall. Now, The Batch House regularly sells out her toothsome treats. The Snickers Cheesecake and Dirty Oreo Truffles are both notables, but we recommend starting with her take on an Oatmeal Creme Pie.
