The pizza date occupies a particularly warm fuzzy spot in the American psyche wherein tender, youthful glances are first shared over a slice of pie. But with Americans mowing through 18 acres of pizza a day, quality and romance sometimes suffer. Cellini´s has restored both with its provocative but simple ingredients. The ¨create your own¨ options present a veritable Kama Sutra of pie possibilities. If the choices prove overwhelming, try The Country Pizza with sun dried tomatoes, goat cheese, tomato sauce and mozzarella with a drizzle of pesto. In the muted yellow, mood-lit interior, pizza again becomes an object of irresistible temptation. Add the generously poured house wines for $3.75 and love is in the air.
