Lunch At Da Pasquale

This is actually a extended post from the last post. I would like to show you in more detail an excellent pizza restaurant that we frequence regularly because it serves good food and good value for money. It's the Da Pasquale Pizza Restaurant.As you may have already known about the street party that went on last Sunday. This enabled the restaurant's owner to move the tables onto the street so that customers could have an al-fresco dining experience in the sun with live entertainment.
We weren't too keen on eating outside so we decided to stay inside while the party rages on outside.
They make authentic italian gourmet pizzas with woodfired oven here, my favourite is the Frutti-de-mare or the seafood pizza.
Check out their woodfired oven, the temperature can get very high so it doesn't take very long to cook the pizzas. They use a flat 'shovel' to get the pizzas in and out of this oven.
We didn't feel like pizzas that day so Terese ordered the Antipasto Mediterraneo, a selection of cold italian smallgoods, cheese, mussells and sun-dried tomato.

I ordered one of my favourite pastas; the Fettucine Carbonara which has a egg and cream sauce with bacon and parmesan cheese. Trust me it tastes better than it looks!
