Aboca's Italian Grill
In 1997, after stints at Melrose Hotel, Dallas Country Club, Popolos, Eatzi’s, etc, chef Arthur Pira opened a fine Ital called Paesano’s coincidentally located steps from NYCE HQ. After bldg its rep as an xlent neighborhood joint, Pira received an offer he could not refuse & sold the place. Took it easy a coupla mths. Became restless. And so here is his new place, Aboca’s Italian Grill, another fine Ital which will undoubtedly establish itself as a nabe fave, too. Ruminate, masticate: spicy grilled scallops served w/ risotto Milanese; pasta Aboca, w/ garlic, shallots, mushrooms, capers, & artichokes in a lemon-white-wine sauce over choice of angel hair, spaghetti, linguini, fettuccine, penne or rigatoni; smoked turkey & Swiss on homemade focaccia. Prices are $5-7 @ lunch, $7-10 @ din, they don't scrimp on the garlic, & their house bread is awesome

Ummmm. That's all I've got.
If only T.G. would write about restaurants in the Carolinas, right Captain
but you got to live in the nabe Twisted. do you? i don't.
i could drop in sometime.
I suppose I could write about restaurants in the Carolinas, but we don't eat out much.
3-1/2 hours if you pass off the right drop off point
Is this new construction or did it replace something else? Sure would be nice to know what the exit is off 75.
Also what the hell do you suppose Aboca means
The only Aboca I have ever heard of is a big herbal products company based in Italy. They have an Aboca Museum of ancient herbal stuff in the Tuscany region.
Perhaps dey smoke da prosciutto wid de herb, mon.
Arthur just made up the name "Aboca's". Makes me think "to-the-mouth" or something like that... From the guy who wrote abocas.com (just going through server logs and found the link from your site - thanks!)
