It was a long time in coming, but I finally made it to Brigantessa, Forneria Meridionale. Named in honor of Michelina De Cesare, a pro-Bourbon freedom fighter who fought and died against the Piedmontese invaders, the restaurant is one of South Philly's hip dining spots which specializes in southern Italian fare.
Located at 1520 East Passyunk Avenue, Brigantessa offers a variety traditional dishes drawn from the unforgettable experiences of la cucina meridianale in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
