Phatphood checked out the new Piada Italian Street Food in Eagan, MN. The new location officially opened on Tuesday May 16th. This is the fourth location with the fifth coming to Edina very soon. His first visit here, and it is love at first bite.
The Piada Story:
“PIADA ITALIAN STREET FOOD STARTED AS AN IDEA scribbled on a napkin during a visit to Rimini, Italy. Our Chefs found distinct charm in the family operated food carts and corner markets scattered throughout the streets of the city where the aroma of fresh basil, hand crafted cured meats and homemade cheeses saturated the air. This trip began our obsession…our inspiration…our mission to bring this experience back to the United States.
We opened our first Piada restaurant in 2010 with a mission to create fresh, modern Italian food focused on the preparation of high quality ingredients and attention to simplistic cooking. Today’s consumers are looking for healthier, better quality food with convenient, fast delivery to accommodate their hectic lifestyles. Piada was created with the belief that you don’t have to sacrifice quality and flavor for speed and value.”
Phatphood Dives In:
Phatphood got the Summer Avocado Piada. Hand-rolled Piada filled with roasted sweet corn & tomatoes, fresh avocado, arugula, mozzarella, pancetta, basil aioli.
Also, the CrispyChicken BLT Tasca. Layered sandwich with crispy buttermilk fried chicken, creamy parmesan, spicy balsamic aioli, bruschetta tomatoes, pancetta, arugula & spicy pickles.
He had a few samples of their Blackberry Hibiscus Lemonade, Roasted Corn Salad and Cannoli Chips. Phat said that he would get everything he had again, because it so good. These are featured seasonal items, so try them now before they are gone!
