Monday night, students from the Business of Food class here put on a restaurant night. The place they were initially supposed to have it at cancelled last second, so they were forced to throw it together at Umbra. They did an amazing job. The dinner centered around a Mexican theme, and they served burritos, chips and salsa, and Mexican wedding cookies. It felt like a taste of home!
The night was particularly special because my Italian family joined us for the dinner! Ernesto, Clelia, and Francesca came to taste the ethnic menu (which they loved!) I loved the family atmosphere of the night. I have absolutely made my own kind of home here, and that's priceless.
I've been sampling a variety of gelato flavors lately. Chocolate, strawberry, hazelnut...you name it! There is a place literally a thirty second walk from school that has medium cups of gelato for two euro. So dangerous and convenient!
Off to Capri (an island off of Almalfi) this weekend! Stories to follow!
