Trekking to Quezon City can be an ordeal, but not when meeting up with friends. We first hooked up at a mall, but finding no restos to our liking, our friend the mountaineer-singer suggested we try out the joints in UP Village. Fine by me, I said, as long as there's beer.
Friuli Trattoria is unpretentious and easy on the budget, like many eateries catering to students from the nearby universities. We tried the food pictured here -- pesto pasta, Viva Venezia pizza and fried ravioli. One taste of the ravioli and I forgot about hankering for beer.
