♥ "everything you see, i owe to spaghetti" ~ sophia loren.

on saturday night nick and my very best friends ventured to roslindale

to share a delicious birthday feast at sophia's grotto. having come highly

recommended as one of the city's "hidden jewels," this mediterranean

restaurant is tucked cozily behind a small alleyway of adorable shops and

eateries. lit with twinkling christmas lights and warmed by the heat of the wood-

oven, this restaurant had an intimate atmosphere which was enhanced even

more by the deliciousness of the food.

it was only as i was leaving that i noticed the fading black and white photos

of beautiful actress, sophia loren scattered about and realized

where exactly the name

"sophia's grotto" originated.

i have watched the milionairess(1960) &

a breath of scandal (1960),
