This was my first visit to Toscano mojito bar and VR Mall. I enjoyed the entire experience. I'm always a huge fan of the salads and soups at toscano. My suggestion is always try the soup of the day and salads first before indulging in pasta or pizza.
My three best picks from the entire tasting was Prosciutto mozzarella e melone, the ham was not to salty neither stale classic salad with fresh rolled mozerella literally melts in your mouth.
Next was the pumpkin, spinach and mushrooms soup. This soup was packed with flavors was so soothing. I have tried almost all the desserts at toscano but not the chocolate fudge cake its a must try from now on. I liked the crusty exterior and fudge center it was all gone in few minutes.
