Ciao Verde Italia opens

A new vegan concept cloud kitchen opened from the team behind Holy Cow BBQ and Rooster’s Chicken House. All menu items are vegan/plant-based and made with local and organic products. Cheeses are either made in-house or sourced locally and are 100% dairy free. The sauces, dressings and marinades are all created in-house daily by their team of chefs. One of their specialties is their authentic cloud-like Roman style pinsa. It’s a three-day process to prepare the dough for the ovens to create a crispy crust on the outside that is light and airy on the inside. Pastas and raviolis are all made fresh; however, the spaghetti is imported directly from Italy. Go to the website to have Ciao Verde delivered to your front door. ciaoverdeitalia.com.
