Orzo saves Mondays, adds spring fare

Orzo Kitchen & Wine Bar on West Main has decided to be one of the restaurants that never rests. Starting in June they plan to be open for dinner on Mondays, the traditional day of rest for many restaurants.

"Since we opened, we have only served dinner Tuesday through Saturday nights," says co-owner Ken Wooten. "Because our guests are always expressing frustration that there are so few dining options on Mondays nights, we decided to step up and meet the demand."

Wooten is also happy to announce a few additions to the menu. For dinner apps why not try the falafel crusted artichoke hearts with arugula and feta crÆ?šme. For the main course, Wooten and company have added a locally raised pork loin scaloppini with mashed Yukon potatoes and an herb and dijon crusted Salmon. And for lunch they've created a grilled flat-bread pizza with locally-grown tomatoes and fresh mozzarella, plus a salmon cake with arugula, tzaziki, and an olive oil roll. Orzolicious!
