Cafe Massimo located at the heart of Rodeo Drive.   It's a tiny little Italian bistro, but really cozy insdie and food were great. 

Freshly made bread - yummy.  still warm just came out of the oven.

We all ordered pasta dishes - so Hannah can eat....
Karin ordered seafood linguine.  Lots of clams and rock shrimps, and tomato based sauce was tastey. You can never go wrong ordering seafood linguine at Italian cafe.

Robert ordered some kind of pesto based pasta......I couldn't remember what he ordered...

I was debating between risotto or gnocchi, and decided to try this seasonal Gnocchi di Zucca dish.  This is Italian dumpling filled with butternut squash with mascarpone sauce
.  It was really good, I like butternut squash during winter time.  The fresh butternut squash made this gnocchi a bit sweet but taste so fresh.The light mascarpone sauce added the smoothness to this dish. 

We went all out this time and were determined to have a completed meal.......We saved room for desserts.....and insisited each to have our own.....no sharing...
Karin had chocolate cream brulee.. very yummy - not too sweet.

Both Robert and I had bread pudding.  I've been dying to have some good bread pudding.  This just perfectly fulfilled my graving.  The presentation is so pretty.  The sweet cream vanilla sauce and carmel sauce were so good.  The bread weren't too soaky.  I really liked it.

Massimo is a cute little cafe, I highly recommend it if you ever visit Rodeo Drive.  The price was reasonability, of course I wouldn't know since my elder sister and bro-in-law paid for it .....so nice to be the little sister.
