Tonight was Italian night. We went to Pizzaria de Paolo (sounds Italian!). It was this nice little pizzaria by the lake (on Rue du Lac, in fact) that got good reviews from Frommers and a couple other places. We weren't disappointed.

We started with 3 dl of the house white. It's amazing that every house white here is better than most $10-15 bottles at home. I guess it figures. Then we had prosciutto con melon, with some absolutely amazing melt-in-your-mouth prosciutto and super-fresh cantaloupe. It was even better than the prosciutto that we had for lunch the other day, which was from the supermarket and prepackaged and yet still almost as good as A Southern Season's.

For dinner Joy had tortelloni con panna (cream sauce) and I had the pizza of the day, which had gorgonzola cheese, hot peppers, and spicy salami.

One surprise was the hot pepper-infused olive oil that they had - it was really spicy and really good.

Well chalk up another good meal - this was about as good as the Thai food we had the night before. Good thing we walked almost 4 miles today...
