WEDDING FEVER

Since I'm getting married in June 2017, it's the right time to do something or it will never happen :-) Last weekend, after coming back from Florence we went at wedding menu degustation organized by catering from Varese Il giardino dei desieri. Check them out: CLICK HERE

What can I say after 5 hours of eating? Huge surprise! Positive surprise! Everything was perfectly planned, in very profesional way. We got all the info we wanted plus the ladies that works at Il giardino dei desideri replied all our questions about wedding organization. I'm not one of those women who enjoys planning it so I'm happy I found a company that can help me a bit with something more than just food.

As for menu... usually after big italian lunches or dinners I feel heavy and I wanna sleep. But not this time :-) The food was well prepared with high quality ingredients. All looked and tasted fantastic! We've been told, we can change the menu for our wedding, so that's another big plus because we know that there are many caterings that offer only already created few menus without possibility of making changes.

The prices depends from what you want to serve to your wedding guests, but standard prices starts from 90€ and includes tablecloths, cutlery, wedding cake, service at the wedding and more things...

We still have two more caterings to check but... something tells me we'll go back to Il giardino dei desideri!

Happy bday to me!😃😄😀

Yesterday I hit 25 and today I woke up with “Booooo you’re old, go home!” kind of thoughts. Nevertheless I’m still beautiful and impossibly awesome in every meaning of this word! 😃😃😃

My boyfriend made my day so special by taking me to beautiful restaurant called Tratoria Leoni in Felino (via Ricco 42), 15 mins from Parma. Its located on the hill and the view is breathtaking! The city, italian sky and when it was dark also city lights… Stunning! Restaurant like that, away from loud, full of people centre, in quiet green area was a perfect choice to celebrate last night. Thomas made it even more special by surprising me with another birthday present- ring with big white pearl.  I wear it even right now cause I love it! Perfectly suits my home outfit that I'm happily rocking at this moment by the way haha😃😀

The food turned out to be another huge plus for Thomas since he picked –as usual- something tasty for me.  For starter we had a bit of prosciutto crudo and salami, for the first dish tortelli d’erbertta (you can see it in the last photo), then we tried coniglio alla cacciatora (delicate and really good rabbit meat). Dinner was accompanied by red wine. We finished with delicious desert that you can see in the first photo. Not sure what it was, pistachios with chocolate, something like that. Whatever it was, I didn’t want to share it with my boyfriend😄😃 Word about the service: our waitress was nice and kind without pretending. I didn't even think to ask "How much longer will I have to wait?!" because everything was served with perfect timing. When it was done and it came to pay, we were not shocked with the price, it was similar to other restaurants in Parma. Just the bottle of wine, that usually we don't take, made our check a bit higher.
