Have you ever seen or heard of grilled octopus garnished with white-bean sauce? And then how about Zucchini flowers battered thick with cornmeal, but fried light and crisp for starters? Well, all is not lost yet, step into Prezza to savor humungous portions of the above and more of this Italian-Mediterranean cuisine comprising Mixed green salad soup with blue cheese dressing ($10) and the handmade pasta Lobster Fra Diavlo ($38). The Italian and Argentinian wines are for $12 and $7 a glass respectively. You may have to dress with care to blend with the semi formal atmosphere. And don't forget to try the rabbit lasagna and chocolate soufflé - it's the best you can relish on, this north end of Boston.
