God's Perfect Food
Last night, Plotnik's cousin Cindy was in town and wanted Italian food. So she got a pizza from Pazzia. How do you make a food any better than a Margherita or a Salciccia pizza from Pazzia? The crust is perfect, the topping perfect, everything understated but incredibly tasty. Sadly, Cindy also wanted spumoni and Pazzia does not serve it. Plotnik had forgotten that Cousin Cindy loves spumoni -- the same thing had happened two years ago when she had finished her Italian dinner (that time at Il Fornaio in Burlingame) and asked, in vain, for spumoni. Who makes spumoni anymore? You probably can't even find it on Fisherman's Wharf. It's a relic from fifties spaghetti houses -- or is it? Anybody know where to find spumoni for your cousin when she comes to the Bay Area?

Of all things, I think Safeway has spumoni. Did they ask about us at Pazzia?
At the old style Italian restaurants, I would always pefer tortoni to spumoni.
It was a cup of vanilla ice cream, with toasted almond (shredded) on top. Mmmmmm. Usually there was a maraschino cherry on there. I was five years old or so when I had this.
