I dropped by to see Denton Hatcher and Molly Taylor play (Molly didn’t make it that night, bummer, but Denton held his own) and I saw enough good stuff coming out of the kitchen that I went by for lunch. Haven’t tried the breakfast yet, but this is a really comfortable and laid back little joint with very interesting art on the walls. You know by now that I really get off on places that want to be a part of their neighborhood and build a community, and La Divina certainly ffits that bill.
I tried the La Rocca panini for lunch, thinking that it would bring me back to the Library Special from long ago. Was I wrong. The sauteed greens and gorgonzola and rare roast beef on excellent bread had a whole different vibe from the pub grub Library Special. Seriously, I have to think on how to work that greens and gorgonzola combo at home. And I followed up with a house made tiramisu gelato that really made my day. I want to do their breakfast, I want to try their pizza. I’d really like to work through the entire gelato menu. This is a place to be, and be well.
