Virgilio's Pizzeria has added Homemade Burrata. Come and try the best authentic Burrata in Denver.
Virgilio's Burrata is served with extra virgin olive oil, fresh basil, peppadew peppers and Udi's grilled bread.
Burrata is a fresh Italian cheese, made from mozzarella and cream. The outer shell is solid mozzarella while the inside contains both mozzarella and cream, giving it an unusual, soft texture. It is usually served fresh, at room temperature. The name "burrata" means "buttered" in Italian.

Virgilio Urbano, owner of his namesake pizzeria west of BelMar, would wake up at 2 a.m. to watch
instructional YouTube videos of hot-blooded Italians hand-crafting burrata. He was determined
to recreate the duly worshipped Italian cheese, oozing with warm cream. After weeks of trial
and error, he sent out an e-mail claiming victory. Talk about an understatement. That burrata,
a luscious 'orb of thin-shelled mozzarella enrobing an impossibly creamy center of heavy cream
and stracciatella-"little rags" of mozzarella curds-deserves its own special place in culinary uto-
pia. It's served warm with grilled bread and whatever else Urbano feels like lobbing on the
plate-verdant basil leaves and roasted red peppers on one occasion. It's not on the menu-
yet- but Urbano often runs it as a special. It's wise to call ahead, just to make sure.
