I own this book and refer to it constantly. A treasure.

To add to the other cookbooks I have, of course. Tried the salad last night, with a few modifications. The market didn't have watercress, so I picked some arugula from my garden for a substitute. Also eliminated the bacon, but was still terrific. Nice contrast of ingredients. I think I need that book. To add to the other cookbooks I have, of course.

So I asked the waitress. She shrugged. No, really, I wasn't just curious -- I wanted the watercress. It's why I ordered the darn flatbread. So she got the cook to come out. He says, "Eh, menu error. No one has ever asked before". I've been craving watercress ever since. Thanks for the inspiration. Not sure it would have worked on pizzetta anyway...
