In Great Falls, Montana you only have a handful of choices for food after midnight. We've got our standard Burger King and Hardee's, both open 24 hours, a couple of gross run-down diners, and a truck stop restaurant by the airport. We understand how pathetic our lack of choices in after-hours dining is, but being in Seattle, with all their late night food choices, was like rubbing salt into a wound.
After spending the entire day going to museums and exploring downtown Seattle we dragged ourselves back to the hotel to take advantage of the glorious indoor pool and hot tub. When we were finished swimming we were starving. Where to eat? We had to look no further than the front desk of our hotel where we found leaflet after leaflet advertising free late night delivery of a variety of tasty-looking foods.
In the end we chose Padrino's Pizza and Pasta. I was dying to eat the Spinach Stromboli which was spinach, feta, cottage and ricotta cheese baked in dough similar to a calzone. Ty ordered the Salmon Fettuccine with mushrooms, capers, and basil in a white garlic sauce. Matt went for a classic Italian Meatball sandwich made with homemade meatballs, Parmesan cheese and marinara sauce.
The food we ordered arrived quickly and was still piping hot when it got to us. The Spinach Stromboli was great. I was glad we had the mini-fridge in our hotel room because it was way too huge to eat all in one sitting. Matt was a fan of his meatball sandwich, but Ty said that while his pasta was good, it just didn't kick his socks off.
All in all we were quite pleased with Padrino's food and speedy service. Not only would we have their food again, but we'd recommend it to anyone with a case of the late-night munchies!!
