Keeping warm with carb-on-carb

It’s win­ter, which means the Welling­ton­ista’s thoughts turn to warm­ing food to warm our­selves up. What’s more warm­ing than the love­ly hug of car­bo­hy­drates?

Pizza overload

All you gourmets and gour­mands will no doubt know about Sco­pa’s attempt on the world piz­za-eat­ing record on Sat­ur­day the 22nd, and the fact that if you join in you will essen­tial­ly be eat­ing FREE piz­za. If that sounds like your sort of thing (and why would­n’t it?), then you’ll need to reg­is­ter first, and accord­ing to Tex­ture, you’ll have to do so by Mon­day.

Com­bine that with the fact that the recent­ly papered-over win­dows of the for­mer Imbibe are cov­ered in plen­ty of Ital­ian Fes­ta posters, and one might start to guess who’s plan­ning to rein­vig­o­rate that Swan lane favourite. Could it be the Bresolin boys?
