A leisurely Sunday at the Park Hyatt Aviara Resort beckons, especially now with their new Sunday lunch at Vivace. Anyone looking to steer away from the excessive traditional brunch and explore the flavors of Italy, should try their Pranzo, a glorious Italian feast of flavors. A nice apertivo to prepare the palate for this meal is an ambrosial Bellini with prosecco and peach. Then head for the antipasti stations. Begin with crudo and other seafood temtpations like fresh oysters, octopus and prawns. A Burkel meat machine slices hand-crafted salumi like sopressata and coppa to accompany specialty cheeses. A table of fresh mozzarella and artisanal burrata, that's pillow soft, also boasts cured olives, asparagus and an orange and fennel salad. After touring the stations, guests have a choice of several mains and sides that can be shared family-style. Homemade pasta means raviolo with mushroom ragu or rigatoni with a tradtional Bolognese. At the expansive dessert bar, you'll find a sweet finish with chocolate-dipped meringues, tiramisu and panna cotta, to name a few. Prana ia served Sundays from 11:30 a.m.-3pm. The cost is $45 per person. Vivace, Park Hyatt Aviara Resort, 7100 Four Seasons Point, Carlsbad, CA 92009, 760-603-6800.
