I have neglected the blog lately. It’s not that I haven’t been eating fabulously, it’s just that in the frenzy of my regular life, I haven’t had time to post.

I had a wonderful pasta for lunch and thought that the food was fantastic, although the portions were very small for the price and the location left something to be desired.
