Big Mama's

The first thing that my mind conjures up when you say Big Mama is Martin Lawrence dressed in drag wearing a fat suit. The second thing that my mind conjures up is a big 'ol I-talian (the lesser known Texan spelling of Italian) woman mixing a giant bowl of pasta. Luckily for us, Big Mama is the Italian restaurant around the corner and it's fabulous! We both had some amazing pasta mains and a tomato/mozzarella/prosciutto salad for an entree. The crazy thing was, everyone who worked there actually spoke Italian - shocking! If there is such a thing as the mafia in Australia (and by mafia I mean Italian mafia with don's named Guido and 300 lbs. hit men named little Joey, not the under belly), Big Mama is where they would hang out. Big Mama knew her way around a hearty Italian meal...and an apple cake. Another weekend and a another good meal.
