Thank you for join me on my culinary adventure as I sample and document all my (hopefully) tasty and creative meals. I'm looking to expand my eating and cooking horizons, as long as they don't involve mushrooms or olives, or most meats......

I hope you enjoy my food blog (flog?)

Tosca, Montclair

I hate haircuts. I know this is completely out of the blue and random, but I really hate getting my hair cut. It has nothing to do with fear--many times I've cut 10, 12 inches of hair without hesitation. I just can't stand the sitting, waiting, trying to make conversation while someone has their hands all over your head. Blech.

So, Dan convinced me to go for a much needed haircut, and afterwords he took me out for a celebratory lunch. We headed to Tosca, an "Authentic Napoletana Cuisine" bistro type place in Montclair that I read about in my favorite community blog.

We were there in time for brunch.

Dan had Brick Oven Eggs Benedict on top of pancetta and artichoke.




And I had Breakfast pizza with two eggs, plum tomatoes, prosciutto di Parma and shaved Parmesan.




I've been wanting to try a breakfast pizza ever since seeing it mentioned on an episode of "The Best Thing I Ever Ate". This one was a bit of a let-down. The dough was a bit tough, and the sauce bland. At least the eggs were cooked perfectly.

Dessert, however, was a win.
Nutella pizza with bananas and berries.
