strawberries.
The restaurant is small but brightly decorated with vivid colours, a mural of the city skyline, and a Roman column that depicts the Coliseum (in Rome, not in Edmonton) and mythical twins Romulus and Remus plus their she-wolf adoptive mother. Battista’s celebrated its first anniversary on November 19th. The anniversary party saw the premises packed with both regular and new customers who noshed on a delectable variety of
calzones. Owners Battista and Liv agree that the city’s response to the restaurant over the past year has been humbling and amazing. The pair hopes to have a calzone food truck on the road next summer.
Calzones, which have been popular in both eastern Canada and the eastern United States, are still growing in popularity and recognition in the western reaches of North America. Battista’s has become an Edmonton destination for these folded and baked entities. Rumour has it that a breakfast variety that contains scrambled eggs, pancetta, green peppers, mushrooms and cheese will be offered in the new year.
