Burma Superstar!

When I say Burma, you say Superstar.
Burma (Superstar!) Burma (Superstar!)
First off, you have to love the name. It puts you in a good mood before you even crack the menu.
Then, there’s the issue of choice: Their vegetarian selection makes me downright giddy.

Pizzeria Delfina

Work sucks.
Not because I don’t enjoy what I do. (I actually love it.) And not because I’m lazy. (I’m only moderately lazy.)
Work sucks because it keeps me from writing reviews in a timely manner.
Case in point: I had dinner at Pizzeria Delfina last Tuesday night. Here it is Sunday, and I’m just now getting around [...]
