Welcome to Stuff We Like

So, this is the first blog post for Stuff We Like.  In case you're wondering, this blog is very simple.  We are going to post about things we like (or don't like).   Honestly, we don't care what you like, so if you disagree with us you are welcome to your opinion but keep it to yourself.  Please don't flame us because we trashed your favorite movie or restaurant.  No one cares, least of all us.  We will try to present cogent reasons for our feelings which you may or may not find useful.  As with all things like this, if we like a place/movie/whatever and you try it because you read it here and you don't like it, don't blame us.  Not everyone is going to like what we like, and that is okay.  If all of this seems too much for you, then you are welcome to start your own blog 'Why We Hate 'Stuff We Like''. 
To kick things off, we are going to start with a real no-brainer.  We found this absolutely wonderful Italian restaurant in Sheboygen, WI (yes, you read that right) called Il Ritrovo. Authentic Neopolitan pizza and traditional Italian dishes make up the majority of the menu.   We strongly recommend the fonduta as an appetizer - delicious.  The service is great, the vibe is definitely casual, and there is a grocery store attached that has a great deli and bakery.  The owner of the restaurant (who clearly worked/studied in Italy with all of the pictures of his time there up on the walls) also owns a full on Italian restaurant across the street called Stefano's.  It is more of a traditional Italian restaurant and reservations are typically required.  We haven't been there yet, but will be trying it soon as we've heard very good things about it as well.  We'll update you once we check it out. 
That should do it for this first post.  Thanks for hanging in there.
