Mamma Mia Trattoria!


















These are pictures from the Sunday Brunch Menu from Mamma Mia Trattoria in Westminster, CO.

Driving around last week we saw the sign above Mamma Mia's announcing they now had Sunday Brunch. We had not patronized the restaurant yet and took the next Sunday morning opportunity, after Mass, to try it out.

Was this ever a pleasant surprise! Brunch entrees are $11.95 including drink choices from mimosas to wine to coffee. They had me at mimosa! You can see my drink in the upper left hand picture. The mimosa's OJ had lots of pulp, just the way I like it! My entree was "Eggs Carbonara". It was 2 eggs over toasted country bread with prosciutto and carbonara sauce, fresh fruit and perfectly prepared potatoes. As you can see the fruit was delicately sliced and perfectly arranged. Rex ordered the "Frittata Aosta". It was an Italian omelet with mushrooms and fontina, served with potatoes and similar freshly prepared fruits. He chose chianti wine to accompany his brunch.

In addition to brunch entrees, the same menu offered tempting lunch entrees. Those dishes ran from $4.95 for the Italian Wedding soup to $12.95 for the "Crepes al Salmone in Salsa Rosa." The crepes stuffed with salmon, topped with pink cream sauce will probably be the beckoning finger leading me back there. Our server also informed us that they are open for evening dinner as well. I think we have a new favorite place to keep checking out!
