As I'm finish getting ready to go to my treasured restaurant, I grab my purse, shove my phone in side and I put a dog collar on my two male dogs Lorenzo and Sebastian, who are two year old and both are brothers. Lorenzo and Sebastian are both Bolognese pure breed dogs. Lorenzo is grey with blue eyes, while Sebastian on the other hand is a beautiful candy caramel color with brown eyes. I purposely get to the restaurant half an hour early before it opens to walk my dogs and open my appetite even more than I already am. It takes approximately half an hour to drive towards my favorite restaurant which is italian, and that I am very fond of. This italian restaurant is called 'Il cuore d'Italia' meaning, The heart of Italy. Antonio and his wife Violetta own this cozy restaurant. It is a medium, small restaurant which has cameral marble tables and grey marble tables outside with beautiful vibrant colored flowers; yellow, orange and purple on every table giving a feeling of life and calmness, yet very romantic. Gorgeous crystal waterfall chandeliers fall from random areas of the ceilings and the odor of lavender and sandalwood course through the air giving a soothing feeling of peace and serenity. This restaurant has the right about of elegance not too much, yet not too little. I feel so comfortable here, that I come every time I'm free. Antonio and Violetta are an older couple both in their mid 60s, but Violetta is a year older. They have a 30 year son and a 28 year old daughter that live in venice, Italy. Both are married and are coming over in a few months to take over the restaurant together, for their parents since they feel it's time for them to retire and have time for themselves to go on romantic getaways and dates. I'm glad that, they'll go out and savor their time together. They both deserve it but I will miss them dearly. I love them like if they were my real grandparents. I am very close to them since the first day I found out about their restaurant and went to eat every day, for about 3 months, literally for a 3-day meal, breakfast, lunch and dinner. They are a very sweet and very polite couple who are generous with their kindness to everyone and also the food that they serve. I don't know how food in italy taste like but I feel that the food antonio and violette serve here is the heart of italy, it is very delicious with many new and amazing different flavors of food that will make your tastebuds go crazy. My favorite is 'Pesto Pasta with Cherry Tomatoes' everything goes well together and I'm not a fan of tomatoes and this meal made me love tomatoes. I finally arrived to the restaurant after walking my dogs.

"Buongiorno mia bambina" Antonio comes towards me pulling me into a hug and kissing my forehead. (Good Morning my child)

"Buongiorno nonno" I say back with a huge smile, showing a off one of a few phrases violette has taught me. (Good Morning Grandpa)

"Wow bambina you talk italian now! It suits you very much." he says chuckling heavily like a little child but with a heavy voice tone. I know he knows that I only know the few phrases his wife and him have taught me but that doesn't stop him from making fun of me. I've been trying my best to learn at least a few phrases, to talk to them and learn more about them and their culture. Lorenzo and Sebastian are right behind me running towards Nonno scratching his leg so he could pet them.
