On Valentine's Day, we did a little shopping and relaxed, then went out to dinner at Platz, a restaurant recommended by my landlord and his wife. They are known for their pizzas and their gnoccho frito. We had both! They also have a special page on their menu dedicated to porcini mushrooms, so we had porcini toasts. I think I need to start buying porcini mushrooms. They don't seem to be in season now, but you can buy jarred or frozen chunks to add to things... On our walk to the restaurant we saw this cute fisherman street mural.
Wednesday I had to head to work for a bit, as we were getting a new machine delivered. Boy, that was a pain! With all the things that didn't work out as planned, we are lucky we got the thing moved into place with nothing wrong!
In the afternoon, Ross and I headed to the Triennale. There were a few little shows on, including an exhibit on women's skin and beauty through the years, old photos from the archives, newspaper photos, Serbian design... Of course, the highlight is in many ways the furniture design collection.
They go nuts for Philippe Starck.
It was a fun evening.
We ended it by having wine and nibbles at La Rinascente on the roof. Because of the cold temps, we were the only people out there, but I really think the Italians are a little wimpy about that sort of stuff!
