A young Italian family next to us , had 2 children with them – a 6 year old boy and a 2 year old girl. And they were there to Eat. First came some antipasto – salami, cheeses. Then 3 portions of Spaghetti alle vongole – which was eaten mostly by the kids. Then came a grilled fish, filleted – a large one – almost 2 portions – and veal piccata. The young boy ate all the fish – his sister shared the veal with his parents. Then…came roasted funghi porcini, baccala in sauce, grilled peppers, French fries and chicory…mostly for the parents.
The kids a bit restless – the younger climbed into the stroller for a nap. The boy started creating things from the bread. He made the form of a car – rolling up and squishing bits to make wheels to stick on toothpicks. Then he made a fort – then a robot - he borrowed some bits of tomato from his dad – some green strands from his mom.
