Chef-Owner Fabrizio Loi is from the village of Triei on the island of Sardinia, Italy. In 1978, Fabrizio was accepted to Italy’s national culinary college, the Instituto Professionale Alberghiero, where he completed an intensive three year certification program in all aspects of restaurant management and operations, graduating with honors in 1980. Here in America, he has created his special versions of traditional Italian recipes.
Ristorante Paradiso has a wonderful quaint setting with the artist's touch of Chef Fabrizio’s finest gourmet delights. It's a place we haven't visited for dinner for years (I recall our son's 21st birthday there).
The meal began with homemade biscuits hot from the oven, followed by wild spring greens with homemade viniagrette dressing. The special of the evening was spinach ravioli filled with shrimp and parmesan cheese, with fresh asparagus atop a sweet cream sauce that was flavored by the asparagus. It was wonderful!
Dessert was a lemon gelato topped with creme fraiche and strawberry drizzle.
We'll be going back there for dinner soon.
