As a side note -while in the UK this last week I went out for 2 Italian meals (I have very original friends...) and they were disappointing (was going to say awful which is truer but I am a diplomat at heart!) - won't mention the name of the restaurants as one is very local to you..up in Ossy..need any more clues? I'm afraid to say it is not authentic Italian food -very much Anglicised...   |
We took my Italian friend Milly to one not far from me.
Absolute rubbish, as far as being anything like Italian food.
Monte Cristo's is much better. Though it's nothing like you get in restaurants in Italy.
Butternut squash soup is lovely. My Ma makes it for me at least once a week.
