Dining @ Capizzi.

We wanted to get that New York pizza experience, so we tried Capizzi @ 547 9th Ave. and W40th.

Just a few blocks from our apartment, it was a fine choice, we got a very romantic, Moonstuck, experience with one of the best salads and brilliant wood fired pizza, all to a very nostalgic soundtrack.

Even our Panna Cotta dessert received special attention with a honey/raspberry/chocolate sauce, signature flourish.  Only bummer was they had run out of homemade Sicilian Leomade.

The Metropolitan marathon. Part 1.

Tales of plunder and philanthropy, power and passion.  This is a collection of epic proportions, so we resolve to limit ourselves to the 1st floor only for our initial foray into this behemoth of a museum. From Egyptian to Medieval, Greek and Roman to Arms and Armor. Arts from Africa, Oceania and the Americas. A touch on Modern and Contemporary arts and many interior tableaux later, we were amazed but arted out.

 

The Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Whats not to like about it.  Tell that to our feet.

Round 2 this week = Floor 2.

It's a hell of a lot of Nic-nak's to get through.
