Food, food and more FOOD!

On Wednesday, 30 June 2010, we had one of the nicest experiences of the trip. The owner of our apartment is Joe D'Amelio, a restauranteur in Atlanta - Cafe di Sole. Joe's mother was a young lady of 16 when she imigrated to America and became a hairdresswer in Boston.They were able to acquire her childhood home and she now lives back there and son Joe has redone the top two floors. Rita agreed to give us a day of cooking lessons. It was great.





Basic tomato sauce                          Eggplant parmesan                               fried zuchinni and penne


She also described another grilled eggplant dish that Rob loved, Pasta Fagiole (Fazool), and meatballs. The homemade wine and lemoncello completed a scrumptious dinner after the fruit, cheese and minature ice cream cones. I hurt.

  1. Okay Doug, are you going to SHARE the recipes with us? When Paul and I first went to Italy with our kids, limoncello wasn't to be found over here (or you really had to hunt). I loved it and brought home several bottles!
