Mario's Pizza and modern civilisation

This is the best pizza I had in my life.

Mario's Pizza is small Italian Pizza Shop at the corner of Elgin and Johnson St. The owner - Mario, an old gentleman with moustache running his family business.

Rich, tasty, and well balanced flavour. These home-made like pizza are only cooked for us. You can't order them on the menu. One of them has a strange name - "monkey pizza". It's better to eat them, especially, after two hours tennis. With the home brewed red wine, very sweet, brought by friends. It's called "pizza wine". This is a beautiful night before Xmas.

Sometimes I think about which countries made the biggest contribution to the modern civilisation. British invented almost all the modern sports - soccer, rugby, cricket, tennis, badminton, golf, snooker... Except American invented basketball. French made big contribution to the world with wine and their haute cuisine, German with cars, beer and classical music. Italian with pizza, opera and the greatest artists - Leonardo da Vinci. Japanese with food and electric devices. Chinese with food, five thousands history and communism.
