Vinto Pizzeria

Last night Tim and I tried a new restaurant in Salt Lake with his dad and step-mom called Vinto Pizzeria. Tim ordered the "Giovanni" pizza, which appears on the menu  with the following ingredient list: Prosciutto di Parma, seasonal fruit, arugula, fontina, fresh herbs, shaved parmigiano-reggiano.

What does "seasonal fruit" mean? We had the same question. The pizza came with thin slices of nothing other than cantaloupe melon. It was good.

Also, we tried a variety of their gelato and sorbetto (guilt-free): green apple and dark chocolate sorbetto; strawberry, mint chocolate chip, basil, and ginger gelato.

We appreciated most of these strange flavor combinations.

  1. I'm curious about how this gelato compared to the gelato place you took us to after that all-staff meeting. Speaking of which, what's the owl's name? That deserves a post.

    Also, I'm very intrigued about cantaloupe on pizza. I've had watermelon on steak before (which was out-of-this-world delicious), but cantaloupe on pizza is a new one.
