Restaurants Tweet for free cake at Varasano's
Posted by Cliff Bostock @cliffbostock on Fri, Jul 31, 2009 at 9:08 PM
Here's my friend David Sandler photographing his chocolate cake at Varasano's Pizzeria earlier this week. Dessert is free if you use your mobile device to post something "nice" about your meal on Twitter or Facebook.
It wasn't hard to say something nice. I ordered the margherita pizza with bufala mozzarella and David ordered the Nana, a similar pie that features more complex herbs than the straight up fresh basil on the margherita.
I noticed that the restaurant now has instructions on the right way to eat pizza (right) on every table. It's true that eating it this way makes the sometimes gooey texture less problematic. But we got no goo with our pizzas. They were just about perfect.
