Rosati’s Pizza!

Just got back from this place. I should’ve taken a picture with my own darned iPhone but it was a rather exhausting afternoon recording Gifts of the Maggi #3 with Kathy and my guest Holly (she found the place). We had a couple pizzas, one deep-dish which was the objective and one regular, to try out. I’m mostly tired from the booze. Not only did I have a beer to get started, a lady representing Heineken threw a couple at us!

I think the recording went well despite the background noise of Cedar Park traffic, the Bears defeating Detroit and then some AFC game no one cares about. Editing should be under way in a while, need to let Kathy rest up.

But the point of this post is to report that the pizza is spot on! Excellent and a more genuine taste of what I miss back up north! No offense to Conan’s or Mangia, your offerings are a good try and to me, pretty close yet they still have this odd…Austin vibe. Rosati’s scratches the itch of homesickness better for us Midwestern Ex-Pats. Plus they carry the good Italian beer Perroni! On the beer, I have a sinking feeling as I learn more about the language and the culture, Perroni may be the Italian Foster’s parading as authentic. The odds are favorable Perroni is the authentic thing since the stereotype is wine being the preferred alcohol.

I may try to go back when the Packers play the Bears. I have a feeling I can count on this Rosati’s to show a game of real football, not the Cowboys playing the rather weak NFC East for ratings.
