Foodtopia Moments



For pranzo (lunch) Zia and I had a fish meal. I got up early this morning to cook the tonno e caperi (tuna fish and capers along with tomatoes) sauce. Then we had gamberi (shrimp) scampi, cozze al vino bianco (mussels in white wine sauce from Ristorante Netti), salmone con rosamarino e limone al forno (baked salmon with rosemary and lemon), and frittura di merluzzo (fried cod). We also had some zucchini and onions as a vegetable. For dessert, we had a sweet melone giallo (canary melon).

While I was out with my cousins from The Netherlands tonight, they treated me to a gelato. I had three flavors of gelato in my sundae: pistachio, cassata Siciliana, and Malaga (which was like rum raison).
