Postcard from Latvia — week two

The warm welcome will always be with us.

Last Thursday in #Rome we had the pleasure of dinner at Scilla & Cariddi. Delicious #Siciliani and #Calabrese food prepared and served by chef Bartolo and his wife Angela. Every dish was perfectly balanced and made from the finest, freshest ingredients. #Sicilianfood #Calabrianfood #cucinasiciliana #cucinacalabrese #foodcoma

A trio of tacos to celebrate coming home to #Adelaide after 8 weeks in Italy. #tacotuesday #tacoalpastor #beefbarbacoataco #bajafishtacos

Our Italian sojourn is coming to an end. We had a final meal with my Roman cugini and Roo’s Latvian cousins last night and a pleasant stroll around the Ponte Milvia quarter. Arrivederci Roma. Alla prossima. #lourooitaly2019 #reunion_in_italy2019

Beer and wine o’clock with Stuzzichini (snacks). Two more weeks in Italy then home to an Adelaide winter. Enjoying these long days and outdoor drinkies. #weareinabruzzo #lourooitaly2019

Wandering graveyards in Teramo province of Abruzzo looking for #Pergolini and came across this one. Not sure if this Elisabetta is perhaps a cousin of my grandfather. Her birthday indicates she’s from the same generation. #weareinabruzzo #lourooitaly2019 #family

This woman and her film crew/entourage were everywhere we went in Burano last week. #lourooitaly2019

Yesterday in Venezia. No we did not ride a gondola. #gondola #lourooitaly2019 #venice

Always take the advice of a trusted local when it comes to dining in Padova. Thanks for the the suggestion that we try Osteria dal Capo, Lucia! The stuffed zucchini flower was beautiful and delicious. My minestra with cozze (mussels) and tortellini di sepia (filled with ricotta) broke all the rules I’ve learned about not combining seafood and cheese. The dish qualifies as a Culinary Bliss Point. And the local house sparkling wine was a perfect lunchtime accompaniment. #culinaryblisspoint #weareinveneto #weareinpadova #padua #lourooitaly2019
