Return to "the Don"

Tonight was my third visit to Don Vito Italian Ristorante in Addis Ababa, and my third time to have their cannelloni de ricotta. At first I was worried because they no longer had it on the menu, but luckily, when I asked the waitress, she checked with the kitchen and they said they could make it. We also tried their lasagna and two spaghetti dishes--carbonarra and champignon--all of which was excellent. Antica Italian restaurant wins hands down for their spinach lasagna, but Don Vito gains major points in upscale atmosphere, prompt seating and their insalata di frutti fresca con gelato, i.e. fruit salad with a small scoop of "ice cream" on top, that I had for dessert. In addition, two of my colleagues ordered caramel creme puddings and went on and on about how amazing it was, such that I have a feeling this won't be my last visit to "the Don" this time around.
