Today is David's last day in Vicenza. He will be leaving early tomorrow for an assignment in Africa. We drove to Aeolia Ristorante in Longare for lunch. It is a picturesque little town, and Cynthia and David have been wanting to eat at this restaurant. We were not disappointed!
A comma is like a decimal in English. Choice of two dishes for ten euro.

| Another gorgeous spring day, perfect for outdoor dining. |

| Patrick had pumpkin soup, risotto with asparagus, and a salad. |
A delicious local wine
I think this is the risotto.
Fagottini - pasta pouches with smoked Prague ham and fresh pear. Those are thinly sliced pears around the bowl. This is the best pasta dish I had in Italy!
Dessert is sfogliatina - baked, caramelized
ice cream that tastes like creme brulee.
Patrick liked it better than I did, so I gave it to him.
Cynthia, David, and Patrick topped off
their meal with a cappuccino.
We had a wonderful time laughing and
enjoying a fabulous meal together.
