We started with a bottle of Orlana Vinho Verde from Peru. It is recommended as a wine that goes good with almost anything and is great for the summertime. We described Orlana Vinho Verde as subtly sweet. We both enjoyed it.

Aperitivo (Appetizer)

Table Side Mozzarella at Prossimo ristorante Italian restaurant in cherry street in Tulsa article by Family Travel Go LLC

We opted for the table side Mozzarella. It’s prepared (you guessed it) table side. I was very excited having it prepared beside us while the chef described each step of the process. It’s made with level 2 extra virgin olive oil (highest quality olive oil that can be imported from Italy) and sprinkled with Himalayan red rock salt.

The wheel is cut in half then soaked in whiskey (Christian walkers) then heated with a torch. Half of the wheel last’s around 22 plates of food at around 2 weeks time.
