Brunch American-style

L-R: Dudo, Karin, Ramesha, Samuele, Lia

Though it originated in Valtellina (northern Italy), yesterday’s pizzoccheri is a dish typical to Ticino (the part of Switzerland where Lugano is located).

Today was something completely different: Ramesha and I fixed a full-on American brunch — French toast, scrambled eggs, and potatoes — for our dear friends, the Lo Menzo’s.

There was even peanut butter, although we made sure to explain that’s not typically offered when you order French toast in an American restaurant!

I’m happy to report that they thoroughly enjoyed the entire meal. And we thoroughly enjoyed hanging out with them; so much so that it was almost 6:00pm before we managed to tear ourselves away!
