San Antonio Has A New Hotspot

All My Sons of Austin is always trying to bring you the latest news and the things that are going around in Texas. The latest the local Austin movers found is all about great food. So, dig in and enjoy the details. According to MSN, Osteria II Sogno in San Antonio, Texas, is one of the new Top 10 restaurants in the U.S. It’s located at 200 E. Grayson Street. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are served here but no reservations are taken. Chef Andrew Weissman’s (who also owns Le Reve) menu includes a gamut of delicious dishes for the foodie in all of us. From octopus plus potato salad and puree of peas and mint to pappardelle with wild boar ragout and rabbit cooked in red wine to freshly baked foccacias and lasagna ai funghi, pigeon and more. Even the presentation is different in this fine establishment. The artisanal pizza is served unsliced with a blackish char right out of a 6,500 lbs oven built especially for Osteria II Sogno, the risotto is prepared with black squid ink, amongst other differences. There’s a large list of red Italian wines and amazing desserts too. Imagine Piedmontese flan flavored with cacao and amaretti, cheese selections and so much more. Breakfast favorites include a European menu of muslix with housemade yogurt, coddled eggs, breakfast paninis, mixed pastries and espresso of course. Chef Weissman is a graduate from the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, NY.
