Carbonara pizza

Simply delicious.  An egg baked directly into a hot pizza full Parmesan cheese and bacon really hits the spot, especially when in the middle of Venice.  It was a masterpiece of flavor painted into the dough, and the rich yolk in the center completed it.

Does Mamma Roma’s have this sometimes?

Best. Burger idea. Ever.

I can’t believe I never thought before to top a hamburger patty with… a fried egg.  I’m sorry, but that’s just awesome.  I admit that this may not be the discovery of cold fusion, but I’m a sucker for fried eggs.   The idea works so well.  The richness of the soft yolk could complement the meat splendidly, if done properly.

My friend got it (~12 euros) by the Brouckère over at the Cheesecake Cafe, a large place which is more convenient than gourmet.  However, I have to hand it to them with this one.  Even though I technically could do this at home, if I were around the area looking for casual food, I’d go back just to order that burger.  I definitely would not reorder the unsatisfying cannelloni (~15 euros).
