Yes! Funny you should ask. Palm Coast has some good red sauce Italian places, but for more high end dining, you need to venture to Daytona or St. Augustine.
The Cellar, Daytona. Fantastic high end Italian in an historic home. Excellent wine list. We went last night and had carpaccio di Manzo.which was excellent plated beautifully with shaved fennel, parmigiano and balsamic vinegar. For dinner, DH had Filetto Al Barolo e Porcini. Cooked perfectly, and between that, the barolo sauce and the porcini it was wonderful. I had Scaloppini ai Porcini. Perfectly tender veal in a porcini cream sauce. Can you say heaven? We also had a 2012 Acinarico Amarone that was positively jammy.
Llama, St. Augustine. Peruvian cuisine and, admittedly, the flavors were new to me. Everyone had a ceviche appetizer, and there were all different types. Forgive me. It’s been too long to actually remember which everyone had. Fo entrees two of us had Cordero Cusqueno - rack of lamb marinated with Andean spices finished with a garlic cream and an Andean salsa. It was such an incredible burst of flavors that I’ve never had before. The other two in our party had Mar Y Terra which was tagliatelle with shrimp and a Peruvian beef with huanvaina cream. I haven’t got a clue what that is but it was delicious.
I’m looking forward to exploring more in my new state!!
