Bocce

all monday dinners should include pizza, wine, and great friends.

it should be mandatory.

yesterday mr handsome and i had dinner plans with one of our favourite couples m&d at Bocce, located at 110 2207 4 street sw.  

owned by the same group that operates Mercato, one of my favourite restaurants in the city, i went in with high expectations for this upscale casual restaurant and had my sights set on the pizzas.  as expected this restaurant was great and will be frequented regularly whenever i need a good pizza fix.

best part, i got to take home the group leftovers which made for a fantastic lunch today.

pizza on monday AND tuesday.
