Cucina, a great Italian restaurant located in the Shops At Woodlake in Kohler, Wisconsin is celebrating it 20th Anneversary this year with a special three-course meal for $20. I have eaten there once and everything was spectacular. Cucina could best be described as upscale Italian. With items such as porcini-crusted scallops with grilled asparagus and roasted red beet risotto it is clear this isn’t your typical red sauce heavy Italian American restaurant. It was over 5 years ago when I last ate there but I still remember the delicious gnocchi dish I had.
Here are some of the Menu Samplings
ANTIPASTI
Prosciutto con Fichi e Formaggio Di Carpa (and please excuse any letters I’ve capitalized or lower-cased in error… lol) – prosciutto with figs and goat cheese.
