    Saturday afternoon is a great time to explore the Short North. I like to experience Rigsbys when the restaurant is a little less crowded and more laid back. My new discovery (of something not so new) is the Cichetti Menu (venetian style small plates). There are some change ups to this menu on occasion but the items listed below are what you could / should expect to see:

    *

    Deviled Eggs with Shallots and White Truffle Oil

    Greek Meat Balls with Tzadziki

    Fried Picholine Olives

    Empanadas Ernesto

    Arancine with Prosciutto and Mozzarella

    Prosciutto di Parma with Fig Jam and Fett’unta

    Smoked Salmon Crostini with Horseradish-Chive Cream

    Spicy Shrimp Bruschetta with Garlic and Raddichio

    Steamed Mussels with Spicy Garlic Tomato Broth

    Calamari Fritto Misto

    Baked Oysters with Parmigiana and Crisp Bread crumbs

    Pizza Quattro Formaggi with White Truffle Oil

    The twelve items on the menu add up to just over $100.

    My favorite on the menu, Steamed Mussels in Spicy Garlic Broth are well worth the cost of $11. The mussels are large and you just want to slurp every drip of broth out of the bowl when you are done. The friendly servers know the menu and have the expertise to help you scale down your choices if you can not decide what you want to order.
