Gana always welcomes us-no matter what the season |
Within our first few weeks of living here in Germany, we found our 'neighborhood restaurant'-
Il Pomodora. http://www.ilpomodoro-stuttgart.de/speisekarte.html
You know the type...they greet you by name when you enter, tell you what you would like for dinner, turn the other check when your kids aren't acting right and make you feel all full of warm and fuzzy as you are leaving and are already licking your lips anticipating your next visit.

no carrots needed to lure us...just fresh Italian! |
If you have visited us here in Germany, you have more than likely eaten with us at this little slice of a charm. We go there in the winter when we need the coziness, homemade soup, and pizza to warm us up. We go there in the spring when we want some fresh air but still need a blanket in order to sit outside. We go there in the summer when we can ride our bikes stopping at every park on the way home to burn off all of the calories. We go there with friends, we go alone, we go with guests...We go. It is our neighborhood spot. We go and we feel at home.

In the beginning... |
It isn't just because the food is so delectable...We go there when we
need someone to greet us, welcome us and help us feel like we aren't
living in another country but rather making this our home. We go...and
we eat. That is what defines a neighborhood restaurant in any
'neck-of-the-woods'. This is what helps us feel a little bit of home all the way across the ocean.....

blankets needed.. |
Seeing those pictures and hearing about that place makes my mouth water. That was a perfect place for a "schwanger" lady. We are coming back so we can eat it again and sit outside. We actually got a really authentic Italian pizza place in the neighborhood. It's really good with true Italians. If funny you posted this cause when we ate there last week I said this reminds me of the place in Germany but not quite as good. The restaurant is small and comfortable and they have 20 beers on tap. I don't know if the president and and first lady will be there to greet you like your last visit but you should come see for yourself. Xoxo
