4. Chapter 32: A little of Italy

Starving and driving down Center Street at 9 tonight, my roommates and I were on the prowl with one goal in mind: a restaurant. We had shopped all day long and we realized that it was now very late and we hadn't eaten since around noon; The adrenaline shopping gives us is very powerful. We had one extra qualification tonight though, we wanted somewhere new. I have always been a fan of the "hole-in-the-wall" restaurants and I wasn't going to settle for the normal chains of eating choices. Down one side street, like a message from above, I miraculously spotted a sign for a restaurant I had never seen before!

De Dolche Vida

Quickly taking action on what I considered to be pure inspiration, I dangerously maneuvered through traffic and pulled in front of this new discovery! "We can just look at a menu and decide how it looks, ok?"

One glance was all we needed! Gnocchi, tortellini, raviolis, etc. And to make it that much better, the staff BARELY spoke English! This was going to be great...

I ordered, by recommendation, the Chef's Patter: chicken parmesan, gnocchi in sauce, beef tortellini, and baked alfredo! It was way too much food, but I ate it ALL! It was authentic and delicious and I Loved EVERY bite!

I have a new favorite Italian place in Provo!! I would suggest it to everyone!
