Walking everywhere is great and all, especially because we have been eating like kings... I have no idea how the people of Italy stay so thin with all of this glorious food everywhere! (In their defense their breakfast is almost nothing and lunch is pretty lean most days.) Exploring the food has been just as much fun as exploring Rome itself! Cheese is the greatest thing a person can invest Euros in. The shredded cheese we find back in the states should not be considered cheese at all. Such an atrocity! Their processed meats are amazing too! Bologna is pretty much a delicacy here. We have yet to dabble in the fish market, however when Adam and I went to the store today we saw marlin being sold by the half fish (like 100 lb of marlin...). Pretty dang cool but outrageously expensive. (That possibly could have been the coolest thing I could have bought while abroad... Tiny bit of regret...) Anyway, here is a post dedicated to food cooked by us and by others, at outrageous bargain basement prices.
The salad course of Brad and Cory's meal
Chefs in action on the tiny stove in the biggest kitchen of all Architecture students
Cory and Brad's cavetelli (oh yes)
Dinner...
Brad's pizza at Borchetta
Adams pizza at Borchettos... Yes that is an egg... and yes, it was awesome!
One could live for years alone on the citrus here. So much fresher, and in an off season.
They all try so hard at being blood oranges, but some just dont make it.
Brad enjoying Borchettos... and hamming it up for the camera
Penne with vodka sauce. No actual vodka, just tomatoes, cheese and cream sauce.
Mike and spaghetti with clams in it... Somebody was jealous of him (me, dang that looks good)
