A Fantasia Pizza For 2!

Today's goal was a 3 hour walk around downtown maximum - ended up doing 4. I had to meet a lady at a coffee shop and picked up some more baby clothes and some blanket covers and pillow cases - overall a great exchange.

I was feeling pretty hungry and the movie theater was closed around 12 o'clock, so we decided to go try the pizza restaurant in the mall called Rosso. We asked for an English menu and that was no problem at all. The first thing we noticed was the cheese they use is Mozarella and it's all lactose free! Probably makes things easier for them - which I was thankful for. So I didn't feel bad for eating so much pizza in the end.
Ok - second thing we noticed was "Rudolph Pan Pizza" - which had on it: "smoked reindeer, blue cheese, pineapples & cheese". We almost went with that option but Tim's not a fan of blue cheese.
Third thing we noticed was "Fantasia Pizza". Which was just the option to make your own pizza with 4 ingredients. So we chose the larger one (it was massive!) with reindeer, Tuscan sausage (very yummy), pepperoni and bacon. Pepperoni and salami is considered the same thing here - so they only have pepperoni listed.
The bacon were real strips of bacon (cut in pieces) and the reindeer was like a ground beef or a crumbly looking bacon - that you see often in pizza shops in Canada. We figure it's because reindeer is quite expensive so they don't put as much (hence the ground version) and because the pizza itself is quite thin and wouldn't be able to support the weight.
There was a list of Fantasia items that you could put on your pizza and I'm kicking myself in the butt for forgetting my camera in my other bag! There were things like "pepperoni, chicken" and then there was stuff like "capers, eggs, reindeer" etc. It was interesting! I'm sure we'll go back one of these days and I'll have to make sure I bring my camera.
2 large pops (think almost Thunder mug - they were quite large - we didn't need refills) and the large pizza with a free salad bar (watermelon, peas, cabbage, carrots/turnip slivers, 2 different dressings, slices of fresh/soft baguettes and pickles) came to under 30E. Keep in mind too - that you don't tip in Finland. The food and beverages include tips in the prices (pretty sure that's what we were told).
Another common thing we've noticed (mind you this is our 2nd time eating out at an actual restaurant) - is that in the restaurants they don't set tables with a fork and knife. They usually have a ceramic container of sorts stuffed with napkins and utensils. I imagine this assists with speeding up the service and the preparation of the table for the next customers.

Oh and the neighbor below finally returned and when we got home Loki's chew rope was in our mail slot.

And before I forget - we walked by the duck pond on the way home and the ducks are hilarious. Some of the ice is broken up (not very thick now) and as they were flying in and onto the pond - they would skid and slide like crazy until they hit a soft spot and then sink into the water. It was sooooo amusing.
We also saw a 1 legged duck.

Time to go relax and knit a scarf for Tim now...he picked a brilliant color. Gray. Typical man.
