L'assaggino

Last Friday, Melissa and I finally tried the cute Italian restaurant L'assaggino that is near our apartment building. It's a little intimidating since there are usually no other customers but she was just returning from a Belgium and we didn't want to go too far. The place only seats maybe 10 people and I can't imagine how they would handle it if all 10 seats were filled at once.


The place was amazing, we fell in love with it. The restaurant is operated by this Italian couple who literally are the hosts, servers, cooks, and dishwashers. When the menu was told to us, each dish was described in the way "I do this with the gnocci..." or "I put this inside of the pasta". Eat item was crafted just for us! The food was delicious and after we finished off dessert we enjoyed a drink of Limoncello. Normally I would go into detail of everything we ate and post pictures of the food but the atmosphere was so laid back that I ate without documentation


We want to take everyone there. Come visit Gneisenaustr and you get to eat at L'assaggino.


We took Renee there this weekend and she enjoyed it, obv! The rest of the weekend was fairly uneventful. I caught up on sleep and gym and reviewed my German notes. We went to a birthday party on Saturday night where my sprachen skillz saved us in a sticky situation, it felt pretty awesome.
