Macchiato

Lazy Sunday, wake up in the late afternoon
Call Parnell just to see how he's doin (Hello?)

 

-- The Lonely Island "Lazy Sunday"

NOTES

    One of my favourite ways of spending a day at the boisterous Ximen District is to stroll around leisurely in search for a new nice eatery to try out. This Italian restaurant "Macchiato" was discovered years ago on a Saturday afternoon on the way home from grocery shopping, the roadside benches still wet with rain from an abrupt noon downpour. Admittedly, the cuisine is not truly Italian, but the pumpkin risotto that I had was quite delectable. The restaurant had undergone a renovation and it no longer looks like this, but looking back at these photos, I do miss its high ceilings and rustic decor, and the days where I can sit by the window watching rain fall off the café awnings.

    住在西門町的時候，最喜歡一個人閒晃著尋找著下一家美麗又美味的餐廳。這家 "Macchiato 瑪琪朵義式廚房" 就是在一個買完菜的週六下午找到的，那天午間下起驟雨，路旁的凳子還是溼答答的。 雖然這家的菜單也不算是道地的義式餐點，但是它的南瓜野菇燉飯味道還是很不錯的 >///<  這家餐廳其實內部已經重新裝潢了，不過翻看過去的照片，我還是懷念著之前挑高的設計和鄉村風的擺設，還有那坐在窗邊看著屋簷滴雨的慵懶日子。
