How cool! Looks like you two had a great time. :) Thanks for sharing.

I love how the cab behind you was plastered with the name "Wheel of Excellence." That's so very British. (Or maybe Japanese. :)) Thanks so much for sharing!

at first glance I thought it said, "Wheel of Ecstasy . . . "

kinda like mine better.

Not so much British really. I only saw it when playing it back and it made me smile. If it were properly British it would be a small sticker in a corner stating which safety marks it had been awarded and whether it was By Appointment to Her Majesty the Queen.

After all the current advertising slogans of our top supermarkets are, "Try Something New Today", "Every Little Helps" and "Why Pay More?" (and the last one is American).

I think a reasonable advertising slogan would be, "Quite a nice trip, and still cheaper than the London Eye."

Although Dana could be in their advert - watching the clip back she is completely amazed by the view. I was too of course, but I was claiming Dad's prerogative and being behind the camera.

I can't get over Dana's pizza... I've never seen anything like it. Do they not slice your pizza for you? Do you eat them with knife and fork???

Cloud 07-09-2008 03:25 PM

LabRat 07-09-2008 03:31 PM

Pizza Express only serve individual Italian pizzas - on the pizza menu I mean.
Having been to three Italian cities I can confirm it is in the real Italian style (with variations by region of course).

They have some trans-Atlantic toppings of course, but with rocket, asparagus, artichoke, egg, pine nuts etc it's much closer to the Italian traditions. I always go for the American style toppings I admit ;)

I'm more concerned with the arrangement of the toppings.

Sundae 07-09-2008 03:56 PM

Again, it's consistent. It disconcerted my ex first time we ate there.
He didn't like me telling him about my previous visits as they'd been with previous boyfriends.

But at least we were both prepared for our first pizza in Venice.
On Italian pizzas, tomato is a topping in itself. Cheese (and everything else) appears to be a scattered afterthought. There might be an art to it... Hard to tell.

In Merka, we prefer our pig to be perforated for pizza.
