BUON APPETITO
Media’s La Padella
offers a modern take
on Italian-American classics

An evening of opera at the beach to support cancer research

Reprinted from Main Line Today
In Nick and Kayla Amoroso’s La Padella, Media has yet another casual, welcoming neighborhood restaurant and bar. In the kitchen, this husband-and-wife duo excels at Italian-American classics modernized and retooled for today’s sensibilities.
Nowhere are the twists more evident
than in chef Jim Stigale’s escarole soup, its one giant meatball (rather than many mini ones) resting in a sea of broth enriched by Parmesan rind. Also noteworthy is the veal Parmesan, which is cut thick to maximize juiciness — and the veal Marsala gets a bone-in spin in lieu of medallions. The seafood also deserves its top billing. Sweet sea scallops are delivered daily, and the cioppino (in a broth of white wine and tomatoes) is another fan favorite.

REHOBOTH BEACH — UNICO Delaware and Rehoboth Area will present an evening of classical music on Sept. 28 to support cancer research and local charities.
The music starts at 7:30 p.m. at St. Edmond Church, followed by a “meet the artists” reception with wine and Italian specialties, catered by Chef John DiLeo, in the Parish Hall on King Charles Avenue.
The concert, part of the Opera at
the Beach Series, will feature renowned mezzo-soprano Andrea Arena, for her fifth UNICO-sponsored performance at St. Edmond Church; tenor Dante Fiore, who has performed leading roles in world and U.S. premieres; and accomplished pianist and musician, Matthew Jewell, who brings years of experience to the keyboards.
Proceeds will be donated to Cancer Research and Prevention, a division of UNICO National Foundation 501(c) (3), and local charities. Local businesses and organizations are encouraged to support this project with a sponsorship of $500, which
will include 10 tickets to the event, reserved seating in the church and a listing in publicity and the concert program.
Tickets for the concert are $25. A combi- nation concert and reception ticket is $50.

Pan-seared scallops are a favorite at La Padella.

The Amorosos try to keep things lively
all week long, waiving the corkage fee for those who BYOB on Mondays. And the bar is stocked with satisfying sips directly from Italy — like Malfy gins infused with fruit essences and natural botanicals. IAH
