The students from Hamilton Central School in Hamilton, New York are sending their final essay. We have enjoyed this project . We have learned about team work, writing using interesting language, how to make pizza, and about other people and places.
Oliveri's Pizzeria
When we went to Oliveri's Pizzeria, we sat
down and noticed that the beautiful sunlight shone through the great big windows in
the front of the restaurant. There were a couple of green plants and also a
zebra plant by the windows. Oliveri's is a small, square shaped restaurant.
There were a lot of Colgate University posters on the wall. No one was in the
restaurant when we went in.
All five of us hurried up to order our food at the
rectangular counter that had a white menu laminated on the top. There
was a gray cash register on the counter. Next to it was a big, hot, square
food heater with circular racks in it. There were pizza rolls on the racks
and the food was being kept warm as the racks spun around slowly. Next
to the counter was a cooler with sliding, clear glass doors so you could see the
drinks inside.
We watched the waitress make a calzone in the kitchen.
First, she took the pizza dough out of the bowl and patted it into a circle.
Then she put all kinds of food on it like sauce, cheese and pepperoni.
We could smell bubbly, hot, juicy pizza with pepperoni on it. She
cooked the calzone in a silver colored oven.
After we saw the waitress making the calzone, we went to
sit down. The square tables had tan and gray tiles that were smooth. The sides
of the tables were bumpy. The comfortable chairs were wood and very
smooth.
We ate spicy, red and white, bubbly pizza and pizza rolls
on white paper plates. When we bit into one of the pizza slices the spicy,
stringy, saucy kind of food spilled down our chins! It was the best!
The sauce got on the smooth tiles of the table. Good thing there were big
white napkins to help us.
