Foodtopia Moments


Pineapple swan
Last night we headed to Ristorante Netti, relieved to see that the financial crisis had not claimed the place. We had our pizzas, mine with sauce, mozzarella, sharp provolone, and spicy salami; mom’s with buffalo mozzarella, tomatoes, arugula, Grana Padano shavings and olive oil. Then we had pineapple art  for dessert .


Vegetable medley
Today, we had a medley of vegetables over some day old bakery bread. It was delicious and the day old bread provided the perfect firmness for the vegetable juices. Melanzane (eggplant), zucchini, pomodorini (small tomatoes), cipolla (onion), basilica (basil), pepperoni rosso (red pepper), olio di oliva (olive oil) and patate (potatoes) made up the delicious mix.
