Cucina Forte Description:
Here's another reason to make the trip to South Philly---Italian born Maria Forte is in the kitchen, and she means serious business. Forte, whose family history includes restaurants in central Italy, brings authenticity and creativity to every plate. Her weightless gnocchi are unforgettable, either spinach or ricotta, with a Gorgonzola or marinara sauce. This is a family operation, and it shows in the attentive service and the home-baked bread and pastas. Bring a good bottle of Italian wine and sample veal rolled with prosciutto and provolone or the zesty zuppe di pesce. The ricotta cheesecake is a must for dessert.
