EAST TUCSON. Intermezzo, a casually upscale Italian place east of downtown, is popular for quick lunches and fresh, flavorful dinners. At midday the restaurant bustles with folks enjoying bright salads and creative sandwiches such as roasted veggies and herbed goat cheese on focaccia. Dinner is a more leisurely affair, though no less colorful. Start with roasted asparagus and prosciutto drizzled with a balsamic vinegar reduction, or bruschetta with three different spreads (tapenade, herbed goat cheese, oven roasted tomato). Then sample a plate of shrimp capellini, Lamb Chops Marsala or eggplant parmesan. The Sunday brunch menu offers a nice alternative to some of the usual dishes, with French toast panini and a lovely frittata.
