Ballo Italian Restaurant: Cheese Wheel

I kept seeing this and had to try it so when my Dad said we could pick a place for dinner, even though it was his birthday,I had to pick Ballo. Their cheese wheel pasta is an appetizer for $25 which is a portion size for 1-2 people as an appetizer.  They do NOT have this on their menu. It’s a secret item that you have to order when you are there. 

They served it as a truffle Mac and cheese. I wish it was a little hotter but it was absolutely delicious. So they put a little grain alcohol in the wheel. Light it then start scraping the cheese. They add a ton of parmigiana cheese, black truffle and then cooked pasta. Mix it all in the cheese wheel and serve. I LOVED this. I love new, creative food and experiences. 

We also enjoyed their fried calamari, pork belly, lobster and shrimp ravioli and zuppa di pesce. 

It was my Dad’s birthday so we surprised him with decorations and a birthday cake. He totally felt like a king. Was a great night.
