I was looking through all photos while we were in Lucca and I have forgotten to blog about this salad I had in a bistro named, Paris Boheme (http://www.parisbohemelucca.com) in Piazza Cittadella, within the ancient wall of Lucca. Just head towards Puccini's statue and the bistro is right next to it.
You got to try their insalata erotica or Erotic Salad! Yes, it's not exotic, it's called erotic salad! I don't know why it's 'erotic' but it's a lovely salad - mixture of salad leaves, few different kinds of cheese (mozzarella pecorino, I think ...), fruits, raisins and edible flowers, etc and you just pour over good quality Tuscan olive oil and balsamic vinegar for dressing. You would not think these combinations may not work but it actually does work well!!! They were really refreshing and lovely! Perfect lunch for a nice summer day with nice crusty bread!

If you ever visit Lucca, you should definitely try this salad.
That's all forks!
