When it comes to celebrating, the first place that comes to my mind is Scusi in St. Paul. Not only is the food absolutely delicious, the entire dining experience has a festive air to it. It’s so comfortable and relaxed you lose track of time when you’re there, I like to imagine it’s what a leisurely dinner in Italy is like. Their tagline sums up the restaurant well: Delicious, authentic; never stuffy or pretentious—that’s Scusi.
We started with the three cheese plate. My favorite was the creamy and buttery Triple Crème:

We shared another favorite of mine, the Arancini:

The Husband tried the Fettuccine:

I wanted to save room for dessert, so I opted for the Beet Rattafia:

And happy birthday to me, what a dessert it was:

Nice! Scusi is on my list!
I think you’ll love it!
Yum! All of it looks delicious! What kind of camera did you use? Your photos are so bright and clear!
Thanks! I actually took these with my phone (Samsung Galaxy Note) but also use a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ200.
Wow! I have the Samsung Galaxy S4, but it looks like the Note takes much better photos.
As long as there is enough light, they are pretty good. And the phone is much more discreet in restaurants. 😉
