The Wacky English Olympics from Torino…Grier and I play the same game from every Olympics looking for silly signage:
Pj’s Torino entries:
Warm sheet of Doug, artichokes sliced with melted cheese.
Seafood or Land Filled Shells
Grier’s long -winded note and entry:
I must preface my entry by saying that we had the best dinner yet in Torino last night. Not only was the food and wine fantastic, but the atmosphere was just truly enjoyable. I highly recommend “La Scaletta”. It’s “walking distance” from the IBC (International Broadcast Center), our local PA told us. Didn’t seem that far on the map. Including a few wrong turns, we got there in 45 minutes… Starving, tired feet and more than ready to kill the nearest local PA. Fortunately, none were with us…
A cold draft Tuborg realigned my attitude. When the appetizers came, all was right again in the world…
So, the menu…
I contemplated “Saint Jacques cooked in the oven”, but as I am not a religious person, I decided to pass.
Instead, I had the “Warm salad of polyp with Pachino tomatoes”. I had no idea Al was in the vegetable business. Maybe kind of like that Paul Newman stuff…?
For the main dish, there was no hesitation whatsoever…
I chose what I think will give warm sheet of Doug a run for his money…
I had…
“Bass to the bag (for two People)”
Anyone figures out what it was will get some cool swag… (No attempt at buying votes here…!).
Cheers,
Grier
