Apparently the ever-present “Coming Soon” sign that’s been sitting in front of Avellino’s location on College will soon be coming down.

Carl forwards this morning’s Daily Candy, which talks about Avellino’s as if it will open tomorrow.  Didn’t look like it last night, so I guess they’re just applying the finishing touches at this point.

Traditional Italian cuisine is the name of the game here: pizza, pasta and Peroni on tap.  As a guy with Italians all over his family tree, I make no qualms about my high expectations for any new traditional Italian food joint.   Hopefully Avellino’s will come through for us, and I can move on to my next brick-and-mortar food lust, an Italian bakery.
