Joe Badali's Ristorante Italiano and Bar, Toronto, ON

Before Gord and I went to the Toronto Rock game this evening, we had supper at Joe Badali's at Front/University.


Joe Badali's is the official pre- and post-game venue for the Rock (you get 15% off your food).

Joe Badali's Ristorante Italiano & Bar, Toronto, ON

I had supper this evening with my pals, Deb, Liz and Rona.  The four of us worked together back in the mid to last 1990s.

We met at Joe Badali's Ristorante Italiano & Bar at Front/University.


They started us with some bread and olive oil/balsamic vinegar.  Yum!


Deb ordered Spaghetti Carbonara (spaghetti, pancetta, onion, raw egg yolk, cream sauce).  The raw egg yolk kinda freaked me out.


Liz ordered Ravioli DeZucca (housemade butternut squash ravioli, roasted red peppers, grilled yellow squash, spinach, pecans, chunky rose sauce).


Rona ordered Badali's Salsicci (Joe’s house-made grilled Italian sausages, patate fritte, broccoli, apple mustard chutney).


I ordered a pizza with pepperoni and green peppers.  It was good but it was a bit overcooked (note the burnt edges).


And here we are ... Liz, Deb, me and Rona.


It was great to sit, yak and catch up for a couple hours.

Stan was our server and he took good care of us.

Joe Badali's Ristorante Italiano and Bar, Toronto, ON

I had supper tonight with Eric, Julie, Laura and Susan. We used to work together ... I left that company in March 2007 (they are still there).

We met at Joe Badali's at Front/University.

I ordered the Penne Pollo All'olio (grilled chicken, sundried tomatoes, mushrooms, fresh herbs, garlic and white wine tossed with extra virgin olive oil) ... minus the mushrooms (yuk!). It was good and I ate it all!


And here we are ...

Joe Badali's Ristorante Italiano and Bar, Toronto, ON

The annual Chillin' Chicks supper was tonight ... we met at Joe Badali's on Front Street W.

It's the first time all four Chicks (Deb, Franca, Liz and I) have been able to get together since last Christmas. We had lots and lots of laughs!

The Chicks are my oldest and closest friends here in Toronto. We met when we all worked for the same company back in the mid to late 1990s.
