Cross Creek Ranch - Italian Maid Café Serves Up New Menu, Music

Italian Maid Café is celebrating fall with new menu items and the return of its popular Music on the Patio series.

The new dishes are the perfect accompaniment to the fall music series taking place from 6-8 p.m. on select Fridays through December.

Treat your date to the new Spinach and Artichoke Dip as you sip a glass or two of wine while enjoying blues musician Randy Burns’ jazzy tunes, Sept. 23. The Blue Walnut Salad is autumn in a bowl featuring candied walnuts over spinach with bleu cheese or feta, purple onions and balsamic vinaigrette on the side. It’s delicious when paired with music performed by Cross Creek Ranch resident Josue Thesis on Oct. 14.

The Bonterra Band — a group of musicians who live in the 55+ community of Bonterra at Cross Creek Ranch— is slated to perform Friday, Oct. 28. You’ll want to arrive early to grab a seat and put in your order for delicious crab cakes. What goes with country-blues group Suzanne’s Band on Nov. 11? We’re thinking a hearty bowl of Lenticchie de La Nonna (lentil soup).

December performance dates will be Fridays, Dec. 9 and 16, with the acts to be announced at a later date.

As always, your favorite Italian pastas will be available, as will vegan options such as their wonderful black bean burger and Mediterranean hummus wrap. For those that enjoy customizing their meals, Italian Maid offers build-your-own pizza and burger options.

The café also has an excellent selection of wine, beer and cocktails. A children’s menu will keep little hands and mouths busy while little ears drink in the music.
