Some Pseudo Italian Food + Fun

Sandra turned 40 and in what could only be descibed as an attempt to eat, catch-up on things, celebrate a birthday and have some fun, everybody got together at Buca Di Beppo Restaurant in Pasadena turning a quiet summer night into a loud frenzy of voices and happy birthdays at the over-crowded establishment.

The food is nothing to be impressed by but good for coming from a chain restaurant. They claim to serve "Authentic Italian Food" but it's far from being authentic, yet savory and plentiful. The family servings allow for everyone to interact and try different things so that's very nice plus, the place is decorative with a million plus italian memorabilia items and having dinner there is definitely an experience.
