Kebab Pizza

Today was a day full of good eating! After all of my classes I came back to my dorm and we decided we were going to go eat at Manor Ristorante. It is basically an Italian version of Whole Foods/Central Market. One thing to know about the grocery stores here is they are in the "basement" or floor -1 of department stores. Megros and Manor are 2 of the larger ones and Manor is 6 floors with the basement being groceries, 0 floor is cosmetics, 1 is designer clothes and so on. Therefore we were not surprised when we found this Whole Foods type market in Manor either! So exciting and it was so delicious. We then walked around downtown for a bit until it was time to head back to our dorm.
For dinner, we had a dinner for everyone in our dorm but it was at the pizza place in the bottom of our dorm! Best pizza I have ever eaten. Claire and I split a kebab pizza and after we put the spicy sauce on it, I don't think I have ever tasted anything so delicious in my life. To put things in perspective, I hate lamb with a passion so for me to say something I ate had lamb and was amazing.. Big deal!
Tomorrow we are going to a farmers market/open air market in Ponte Tresa, which is right past the Italian border. Tomorrow I will start taking more pictures again when more exciting things are happening than walking to and from classes!
The picture of the day just for fun is still from last weekend in Gimmelvald!
