[UNC Summer in Grenoble] Dinner at Mezzo Di Pasta

June 2nd, 2015

This was a relatively free day, because all we did on this day was visit the Bastille, have our first French class, and pay a short visit to the International Student Office of Grenoble.

Since that was the case, some of my classmates gathered together, and went to wander the downtown Grenoble. It was definitely not around the Cours Jean Jaures nor Place Victor Hugo, because if it were, I would have noticed.
Around the time for dinner, we started looking for somewhere to eat.
...
We've experience the magic of being unable to find any restaurants when we needed them...


But after a while, my classmates and I found a pasta franchise called "Mezzo Di Pasta"

 We all somehow ordered our pasta without knowing anything about how to order things in French.
Except for my friend in the blue shirt. He was pretty good with French.

The worker of Mezzo Di Pasta started cooking our pasta very busily.
after a while, we've all received our orders of the pasta and drink of choice,

sat around the table situated outside,

 and enjoyed our pasta and the gorgeous evening atmosphere of Grenoble.

I had some amori pasta noodles with bolognese sauce and a can of Orangina.
It came out in a cute, green box. The amount was more than I expected.

The sauce was good (I mean, it was bolognese... you can't really go wrong with that.), and the noodle was fantastic!
It was the most perfectly cooked pasta noodle I've ever had in my life, which I can't really replicate the sensation in words due to my weak expressions and vocabulary.

Oh, and Orangina!
It was one of my "must have" drinks while I was in France.
These were so good! These are basically carbonated orange juice that are just sweet enough to please and not annoy the tastebuds.
Ah... I would love a can/bottle of Orangina right now....


Mezzo Di Pasta.
While it was very good, and an inexpensive place to eat at.
I would recommend eating other food if you're a traveler or studying abroad for a short time.
I personally think it is a smarter decision to eat something you can't easily have access to at your home town. (e.g. Kebabs)

I miss Orangina and Kebabs.
