When I think of Terra Rustica – and I often do when I’m particularly hungry – the first two words that come to mind are abundance and family. And both were evident when we went there for dinner on a recent Sunday. Four of us showed up hungry and ready to do some damage to their extensive menu of Italian favorites.

We were warmly greeted by the staff and minutes after being seated on the patio, we were served a plentiful basket of freshly baked bread, crunchy bread sticks and a piece of bruschetta with tomato and basil for each of us. Accompanied by four individual cups of olive oil for dipping. Needless to say, the bread didn’t stand a chance.
