Seasonal small plates from the folks behind Francesca's.
In a departure from the Francesca chains reliable if conservative fare, Francescas Forno offers a seasonal menu of small plates that cost less than $10 and cover virtually the entire Italian culinary landscape. The flavors in an antipasto of roasted beets with Gorgonzola and a scattering of crushed hazelnuts worked beautifully; mortadella and a sheeps milk cheese chosen from a list of several salumi and formaggi were also excellent. Unable to forgo a large plate, we tried a grilled swordfish special with roasted artichokes and a balsamic reduction, a nice example of the kind of thing Francesca's can do so well: simple, delicious peasant food. Like all its sister restaurants, this one, in the former Soul Kitchen space, really packs 'em in.
