I knew what to expect when I first arrived. A jungle. Everyone wants the same as me. Make it through. I was not alone, fortunately. My dad and my sister were with me. So the first 9 days felt almost like holidays. Those kind of tense holidays when you know you're gonna be alone soon and you're going to survive on your own. Everyone has had one of those, right? Let's face it, with my dad around, all I wanted to do was eat and blog, I did not expect to get this major flu the second day in. That threw me off my game. Then came the pressure of getting a house, no appetite for eating or blogging, then the days started to get shorter and exhausting. All I could do back in the hotel was to send CV's. As many as I can.
I did manage to enjoy the very first day before I got sick. I was a little off my game already, not really hungry. But I had to do this. I had to go to Franco Manca with my dad.
After researching on so many blogs, I chose Brixton's Franco Manca because I got so curious to try their famous pizzas... But still, I didn't get my hopes too high, you know, not to get too let down.
We ordered two No Logo beers, so good and organic. I'm no beer expert, I could say that you didn't get that alchool aftertaste you get with some other beers. I enjoyed it.
And then we ordered two veggie specials. I couldn't resist the specials board and I'm cutting down on my meat intake. And the pizza was amazing. Light dough with a lot of ingredients, perfect pesto and sun dried tomatoes. I believe that after this I'm officially addicted to sun dried tomatoes. Loved every bit about it. Could go without the potatoes, though, I love potato pizza, but it felt a bit nauseating in the middle of all the vegetable goodness (or was it my flu ringing a bell?). Anyways I hope I get to come back and try some more pizzas. I absolutely loved the whole thing. Oh, and the pizzas are cheap!
Not bad for a first post, ha?
