A Solid Craft In Dining
At lunch on Wednesdays, we go out and dine at Trattoria Romana ,
wth my confreres in the community, there’s a choice to make;
either we spend the money or be content with the left-over at home
for certain reasons this makes us aware of those who are poor.
In many Italian menus, there’s always pasta with tomato sauce,
slices of prosciutto, ribbons of zucchini with buttery lemon-white wine sauce,
braised veal ragu with fresh mint and green olives, oh! delicious in toto;
We relish them with delight and affirm the goodness of eating out.
Scarpariello is almost our choice for every meal in this so-called place.
with its juice and broccoli rabe create a better taste to savor it through
truly, a special dish that everyone likes and recommends to order hitherto.
Homemade desserts complete the meal with a cup of Italian espresso,
some ask for a decaffenated coffee with cannoli cream that’s sweet and good;
like a friendly combination that culminates the whole menu for this meal,
a moment to cherish, an experience of grace that satiates our hunger and thirst.
We love to share our thoughts, insights, reactions or experiences while we eat;
it’s like a commitment to a life of sharing and ministry to our own people,
there’s openness and joy that take its course along with our conversation,
part of our meal, a relationship to deepen; that in turn enables us to love one another.
