I’ve been feeling crampy all day. It kind of feels like the baby is biting me, though I know that can’t be the case. It’s not so bad as to warrant a call to the doctor (because that might lead to a trip to the ER -nooooo! never again!), but enough that I want to take it easy.
Shane suggested a “mom’s night out.” Although he was a bit unclear on what a mom’s night out traditionally entails, I really appreciated that he recognized that I wasn’t in the best of shape for making dinner.
We decided to try Nick’s Pizza in Forest Hills. We’ve been meaning to go there for years. I remembered being told to get there early, so we arrived promptly at 5:15 to a half-empty restaurant. Perfect!
The pizza was very good, thin-crusted and super-fresh, good quality fresh mozzarella. It didn’t quite meet my expectations, but that tends to happen when you’ve been told something is amazing for years. The house salad was excellent.
We had gelato for dessert, back in the ‘hood at Lety’s.
Very considerate of Shane :) Is that the pizza place on Ascan? If so, I second it! Back in my wheat-eating days I met a friend there and enjoyed a delicious thin-crust pizza with a glass of red (oh how I miss those meals)… Hope you’re feeling better now.
That’s the one!
That was on our list of potential places to go to eat tonight – we ended up at a yummy beer garden in Carroll Gardens. I have been to Nick’s many times – usually followed up by a trip to Eddie’s Sweet Shop for ice cream :)
Pie! Pie! We love Pie!
