Italian

Damn, my post from May 21, 2019, which was about a week before that marriage blew up in spectacular fashion.

I guess I need to take my (second) wife to Sienna sometime.

MARRIED GUYS, DON'T GO TO SIENA!

Or maybe do.  Depends.

La Traviata just reopened right by me. Haven’t been yet but have heard good things from people in my hood.

Met up with some folks today at a joint in Round Rock called Palermo Pasta. Not out of this world good, but they have a lunch special that was $12 that includes iced tea, salad and main dish and there were 5 or 6 options. Most of us grabbed the lasagna or Calzone and no complaints.  Decent $12 lunches are hard to find these days. 

 

We love Palermo, esp their alfredo.

This the same La Traviata that was on Congress?

Yup, same chef/owner.  Can't wait to try it, the original was one of our regular joints.

Oh yeah, carbonara at the downtown Traviata was great.  Didn't know they were opening a new location, good for them. 

[HenryJames 66170]

Yeah maybe one of you idiots can eat there and tell us if it's still good.

That's cool, but where would that be?

We went last night and everything was very good. Drinks were surprisingly stiff as well.
