Calzone, Napoli. It seemed an unfair challenge to our abilities to make a pizza with lots of filling, fold it over, then put more topping on. This calzone and its friend the pizza above, defeated us.
We were also served this very nice spinach... which we had ordered under the name of broccoli. This happened two nights in a row in two restaurants... any clues, anyone?

Re broccoli and spinach-- I can't shed any light on this, but I do know a bloke who knows a bloke who has a little elixir that can make them both taste like strawberry icecream... or zabaglione...
