Sidewalk Talk

What better, on a hot summery night, than to venture out with your best friend to a favorite haunt (Pizzeria Delfina...yeah, it's been blogified before) and grab an outdoor table? What better than to watch the hipster parade go by, even grab the arm of a friend on his way to BiRite, as you chat and drink good red wine and eat a splendid caponata? And who would argue with an eggplant dish doused generously in good olive oil, with capers and pine nuts and two crispy toasts for smearing? And will I finish this with yet another question? Who wants to know??
