Today I spent the afternoon relaxing at the Mall of America with my family. We went in hopes of getting a jump start on the Christmas season. We didn't have any pressure to find presents for anyone and, since it was a Tuesday, we didn't have to fight any crowds. We also made the trip to Mall to eat lunch at our favorite MOA restaurant, Tucci Benucch.
Tucci Benucch is a little Italian restaurant on the first floor between Nordstrom's and Macy's. It's nothing like the other popular restaurants in the Mall, full of energy with a lot of noise and bustle. Tucci Benucch is quiet, cozy and has the feel of a family-owned restaurant. The ambiance is extremely easy to embrace as if you were escaping into the Tuscan countryside.
The restaurant offers a menu with a great variety of antipasti, pasta, pizzas and other traditional Italian dishes. They have a large wine menu, as well. I enjoyed a lovely plate of sweet potato ravioli with an apple cider cream sauce. It was exceptionally sweet and enormously rich. It was fabulous.
Tucci Benucch in the Mall of America never disappoints. With a great atmosphere and quality food, this is one of my favorite restaurants in the Twin Cities.
