their food comes in courses

@abonawas and that my friend is the difference between classy and trashy. no offense

[enishicz28]

my sous used to work here

@abonawas Italian invented espresso machines. Angelo Moriondo from Turin, Italy inevnted the espresso machine. Ethiopians could not possibly have invented espresso and taught Italians how to make it if they did not have a means to produce it. I have heard that Ethiopians discovered coffee but the story seemed somewhat far-fetched.

@pkflake ever heard of 7 course, 8 course meals?

[pkflake]

can u get full eating this kind of food...?

[abonawas]

@lucatoscani73 no espresso is not italian but infact is ethiopean......when the italians colonised italy the ethiopians taught them how to make espresso....ethiopia grows coffee and the best beans ......but i like greaseballs cos they have style and r good designers of stuff.....they have the eye for good things.....i like italian food ....like italian women although i never had one.....but they look good and r femenine not maleish like american chicks.....

[lucatoscani73]

@abonawaseven yes and tomatoes are not originally from Italy(they are from the americas) neither but we consume them in extremely large quantities and our sauces are famous all over the world. coffee doesn't grow in italy but we are famous for our espresso. so you see its not who invented it in the first place but it is the culture that makes the food good

[abonawas]

@lucatoscani73 yah you greadeballs eat good fresh food made from real ingredients......all them fancy restaurants are run by chefs who cant make money selling good simple food so they invent stuff and serve it in a high rent high maintenance pplace knowing well that there are suckers willing to pay for the so called calssy food with clasy smart well dressed soft spoken faggot waiters.....did u know that pasta and speggeti was invented by arabs first and not italians....and so is ravioli....

[lucatoscani73]

@abonawas I agree with you when you talk about the decorating, the crazy prices, the snobs and that all ends up in a mess in ur mouth anyway, but i love food and i dont think Mac and fries are a symbol of good food. but tastes are tastes. I'm Italian and we Italians cook pasta in thousands of ways, it's delicious and it costs nothing to prepare.
