Maryland, Bel Air: Savona - Fine Italian Foods and Wine

 Look for many quaint shops on Main Street in Bel Air, Maryland.  Recently I have informed my readers about Tiger Lily Boutique and now I want all of you to know about another wonderful place called Savona.  My friend Stacey encouraged us to try out this Italian shop.

The moment you walk into Savona, Maria, the owner, embraces her customers with her love of food and wine.  This past Saturday, she offered to give us a couple of wine samplings and informs us about her award winning muffelato.

My friend Stacey suggested we try a cheeseboard with three types of cheeses from the variety of twenty listed on the menu.   Maria suggested a fontina, a creamy prima donna, and a sheep’s milk manchengo.

Our server, Amanda, brings out a cheeseboard covered with tasty toasted artisan bread slices, whole olives with spread, and cranraisins.  I like a good Pinot Grigio and Maria hand selects a great one from the wall of wine.  We discovered that The Kris, Delle Venezia made for a perfect Saturday afternoon sipping wine.

I also wanted to mention that Savona’s menu also includes salads, wraps, paninis, meats and delicious Italian desserts including Vaccaro’s cannolis, Italian cookies and biscotti.  Like to enjoy great Italian food and wine?  Go visit Maria and her staff at Savona in Bel Air!  Molto Bene!
