Getting Your Just Desserts
If you're headed to some holiday soirees, make an impression with one of Corrado Savarino's giant cannoli platters. Sixty bucks is all it takes to be sure you're invited back next year. Call ahead and give Corrado a half-hour or so to get it ready. They're made to order, and as many a Scene employee can attest, they're the best cannoli in Nashville. (Cannoli is the plural of cannoli, by the way.) The giant cannoli are available year-round.
But just for the holidays, Savarino's has a variety of gingerbread houses available to spice up your Christmas celebration.
Savarino's Cucina is at 2121 Belcourt Ave. in Hillsboro Village, Phone: 615-460-9878.

service is spotty though, and the dude was very rude the LAST time i went.
Posted 12/20/2007 at 09:48:53 AMI'll still call them cannolis. Because I like to say "cannolis" almost as much as I like to eat them.
Posted 12/20/2007 at 11:29:01 AMi live for cannolis. one of my alltime faves...
Posted 12/20/2007 at 11:31:34 AMThis is a test.
Posted 12/20/2007 at 11:36:16 AMsince we're testing here... the link to 'american grill' is not working...
Posted 12/20/2007 at 11:49:56 AMSeems to be an intermittent problem. We're looking into it. Thanks.
Posted 12/20/2007 at 11:57:37 AMAnd Jack treated us all to some of Savarino's pignoli cookies yesterday. They were the best macaroons I've had since Becker's Bakery left 12South--with pine nuts to boot.
Posted 12/20/2007 at 12:35:22 PMI really like the serving of attitude I always get with my food. There's something to be said for buying food from someone who says exactly what's on his mind.
Posted 12/21/2007 at 06:42:31 AMpink - i'm with you. but probably the 'typical' local southener is just so not used to that kinda thing.
Posted 12/21/2007 at 09:00:48 AMMacaroons! That's what they reminded me of. I couldn't figure it out. Thanks Carrington...
Posted 12/21/2007 at 11:02:54 AMOf course he's rude. Corrado grew up in New York. But lest Ms. Fret let her guard down, in the South, the knife goes in with a smile and a bless your heart.
Posted 12/21/2007 at 01:11:19 PMi grew up in nyc. i am not rude. but i'm also not easily offended. the southern smile, bless your heart thing is creepy... but i think that's as common as are rude ny'ers. exaggerated. i go to nyc about 3x a year now and i am convinced that ny'ers are the nicest people around. seriously...
