To Die For Part III

Finally had pizza. More than once. I was thinking I might be sick of Italian food by now.

Hardly.
Picture
Mushrooms roasted and bathed in olive oil. Mouth melting. They didn't last long enough.
Picture
Chicken, roasted. That's all. Hard to believe how good it was.
Picture
Shaved parmesan with sliced, raw, artichokes. We almost ate it all before I remembered to take the photo.
Picture
Most places give you free stuff when you order wine. Ham, tomato, cheese and arugula finger sandwiches. With Prosecco of course.
Picture
Best pizza of my life so far. White sauce, I dunno what kind of yummo cheese, white beans, onions and sausage. 

If loving this is wrong, I don't want to be right.
Picture
The most beautiful food. Breakfast in Rome.
Picture
Even morning coffee is special, lovely. Served in individual silver pots with steaming, frothy cream. Am I dreaming?
Picture
More free bar food. Finger sammies, chunks of Parm, and a mini slice.
Picture
Sometimes you get free dessert too. We got this tantalizing treat. Little fried puffs of dough rolled in sugar and drizzled with raspberry sauce. 
Picture
But, we'd already ordered these light, fluffy, puffs of fried heaven. With whipped cream and strawberry sauce.

We had no choice. We ate them both.
Picture
Mood lighting in the restaurant didn't help the food photos. I looked fantastic, though.

I should've put this pic before the dessert...but who cares? It's all good.

Squash blossom carbonara. 
Picture
Gelato every day. At least once. We're gluttons. 
Picture
So, hubby had the gelato. I had the cappuccino and these delectable little cookies. Before I knew it, they were all gone.
Picture
Fried squash blossom stuffed with cheese. They love their squash blossoms in Italy. This is why.
Picture
Fettuccine with mushrooms. I don't know what they do to their mushrooms here but whatever it is I hope they never stop.
Picture
A little rigatoni with tomato sauce and pancetta. In case you need more food.
Picture
To wrap it all up...some goat cheese, pears, balsamic and radicchio. 

I'd hate me if I wasn't me.

I think about now I'd be able to snarf all that up in one sitting. What's also amazing is the food's presentation. Every photo you've shared has just been completely beautiful.

Thank you for sharing!

I can only say one thing, if I could cook like that, I'd never leave home. Exquisite display as well.
