My friend Lydia had just come back from summer traveling, so we had to meet up before she moved back to nor cal for school. We decided to check out Old Towne Orange, and stumbled upon Francoli Gourmet for lunch. I have to say that regardless of how good the food tasted, I was uncomfortable the entire time due to the massive heat blanket that had set down upon the city. Good thing we were able to enjoy refreshing prosecco and italian sodas. The Bruschetta Francoli, diced roma tomatoes, parmigiano reggiano cheese, garlic, basil, and extra olive virgin oil on toasted ciabatta; was delish but a little soggy at the center of the ciabatta. And the Milano Panini was jammed packed with proscuitto crudo, artichokes, and fresh mozzerella but a bit warm for my current physical state. The next time I dine here will definitely be during the evening. But you know me, I will take friends and food any day!
