Olive Oil Inside Out

2009 November 9

This weekend overflowed with walking, good food, better company, and many occasions to take copious photos.

After a missed bus mishap, very little sleep, and my fifth (?) tour of Georgetown University proper and the surrounding neighborhood, Frank and I took our little crowd of visitors – Julia, Ryan, Dave, and Gabby! – to Pizzeria Paradiso for a late lunch.

Foccocia bread with roasted elephant garlic and drizzled with excellent olive oil. When I came here last year with my mom’s cousin, she tried to find out who the restaurant’s supplier was, to no avail.

Giant roasted cloves of garlic necessitate chewing gum afterwards.

Pizza #1, the Di Mare – topped with mussels. Pescadarians for the win!

Talk to me.

Gorgonzola and some other cheeses. I really liked this one too.

The namesake pizza.

YUMMMMM.
