"Bay Park — Replacing the former La Pastaia Italian-American restaurant is Romanello Cucina Romana , which slings central and northern Italian dishes such as cacio e pepe and pappardelle Bolognese. Warm Italian bread lands on the table as diners are seated; the custom Italian oven bakes pinsa, a Roman-style oblong flatbread hand-pressed with fermented Caputo flour and topped with tomato sauce or mozzarella. A native of Rome, co-owner James Pasquali says he wants to “introduce true Italian dishes from his hometown to the neighborhood.”" - Helen I. Hwang
