We stumbled into Fabbrica for a quick bite, after wandering from a nearby exhibit in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Its atmosphere is laid out in an industrial setting, serving Italian fare. Prices are reasonable, and expected for city dinning. The lunch hour provided a welcome quietness that aided us in winding down from being out all afternoon.
I ordered the Chitarra al pomodoro fresco which is basically a fancy way of saying, ‘I like the homemade spaghetti, please.’ For my beverage I opt for the homemade lemonade in lieu of a spirit. My friend got the Prosciutto pizza. For my taste buds the spaghetti noodles were al dente perfect! While the sauce left much to be admired. I felt it was a bit on the watery and bland side. Probably the cherry tomatoes made for a more watery like sauce? To stave off the watery blandness, I added some parmigiano cheese in hopes it will solve the salt issue to no affect. Then again, I like my salt! So for all I know the salt level was probably as high as a salt tank but my taste buds are desensitize to it. The lemonade was on point. It was a perfect balance of tart, sweet, and refreshing all around.
Overall, Fabbrica provided for a nice lunch, I will definitely go back to try out their Polipo appetizer, another fancy way of saying, ‘The octopus appetizer.’
