Restaurant Review: Buon Appetito

Buon Appetito is an Italian restaurant in San Diego's Little Italy. Ryan's parents first introduced us to the restaurant shortly after we moved here and it's been a major addiction ever since. Now I don't typically crave Italian food when I eat out. It tends to be heavy and unoriginal. I'm usually more of a sushi/Thai/Indian fan. However, I love the Capellini alla Checca at Buon Appetito. It's angel hair pasta tossed with a simple sauce of tomatoes, basil, and fresh mozzarella. Something about the freshness, lightness, and balance of the dish demands that I eat it with the fervor of a rabid animal. It's really that good. In addition, you can easily ruin your appetite with the tasty tomato salsa and fluffy table bread they give you as a starter. All in all, it makes for a delicious meal.

Note: San Diego's Little Italy really consists of two lonely blocks on India St.
