Pizza at Tintoretto's - an overly doughy crust, soggy, with no flavour. More like a greasy slice of mediocre bread with a bit of melted cheese and pepperoni, than any decent pizza. Tintoretto was an Italian Renaissance master, and I'm guessing this cafe was named after him - poor Tintoretto ... he's probably somewhere spinning in his grave, as his good name has forever been tarnished, now that he's been associated with this crappy excuse for pizza! I probably should have tried the regular pizza - this slice of garbage was supposedly Sicilian pizza, but was a shadow of the incredible stuff I once had when I was actually in Sicily (see blog entry entitled "I spent the night with a cute little doll" http://www.travelpod.com/travel-blog-entries/pwong/europe_2006/1158594120/tpod.html ) The pastries on offer at Tintoretto's did look incredible but I held back, as tonight we are going for the buffet at Paris - I'm saving myself for that!
