My Risotteria Story

[ryebaby0]

Only you guys will appreciate this:

Last week, I chaperoned a trip from my son's high school to NYC. While the kids were otherwise occupied, a group of us took a taxi to a restaurant recommended by another friend -- some Italian place. I'm getting out of the cab, turned around to face the rest of the group, and over their heads read the sign about two doors down:

"Risotteria"

and I yell

"OHMYGOD IT"S RISOTTERIA!" and then I bolt down the street to gawk. I get out my camera, to take pictures for my celiacs (they stayed home for this trip). It starts to pour. A guy comes OUT of Risotteria with an umbrella and holds it over my head. I am actually crying. He says

"yeah, we get this a lot"

Was this last Friday by chance? Mookie and I ate there for lunch and left only a few minutes before it started pouring.

and boy did it pour!!! I waited in the subway for 20 mins and still got soaked!! But a trip to Ris is ALWAYS worth it!!

Wow that is so neat. I was planning on going into the city on Thursday (the past Thursday) that is the day when all the trains shut down b/c of something with the electric. Seems that there was some reason I fell and hurt my ankle! But my trip to Risoterria will happen!! I am determined!
