Baby Iris is exceedingly partial to pasta, and for a treat Nigel occasionally takes her to our very most favourite Italian eaterie in Evesham, the Buongiorno Cafe ……
….. and yesterday was one of those special days ….. Nigel had a little spare cash in his pocket and he was going to spend it ….... on something very, very delicious.
Once they were settled at their table, Nigel perused the menu, even though he must know it off by heart by now, and almost plumped for the spinach and ricotta cannelloni …..
……until he happened to look up at the board and saw that "Dish of the "Day" was ravioli with pancetta, sage and butter and decided that it would look rude for him and Iris not to try it.
Let’s just say, it did not disappoint. However, Nigel had ordered to share, but Iris, bless her little socks her kept clearing her plate and asking for more ……
…… so Nigel, even though he loves his food so much, made the ultimate sacrifice and gave willing unto Iris! He did say that the two pieces of ravioli he did manage to eat were absolutely, melt in your mouth, bellissimo ..... but it was Iris who was doing most of the nom, nom, nomming ..... Awwwwwww what is he like?
Iris looks to be a great eater, and not at all fussy.
ReplyDeleteLove does change priorities as Nigel knows only too well....Iris already has developed a taste for good food and her nom rating would obviously be very high for this wonderful lunch....does look mouth watering delicious! .....Dianne
