Mozzyman's Restaurant

HERE COMES A REPRINT OF A RESTAURANT REVIEW I WROTE FOR THE SUNDAY EXPESS A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO. THOUGHT YOU MIGHT GET A CHUCKLE FROM IT. (Or not!). Love, Postman Batt.

Places To Eat in Southern Italy – for gourmet Mosquitos

MOZZYMAN’S RESTAURANT

It could be a scene set in any new restaurant. Anton Mozzy, proprieor of Mozzyman’s the smart new place for Mosquitos to visit in Positano, Southern Italy, patiently takes another order as the place fills up to heaving point. Mozzyman has chosen as his location - Mike Batt’s body, asleep at Villa Maura on a hot August night. And it’s a happening place. The clientele includes bog standard Mosquitos, flies and more importantly in terms of cutting edge (and we mean cutting edge in a flesh-tearing way) - some of the top movers and groovers from the new strain of Tiger mosquitos now prevalent on the Italian Riviera.

“I’m afraid we have only two servings of Mike Batt’s left knee, there’s been a run on it” says Anton, to a frustrated group of the Tiger Mosquito in-crowd, - “ but the ear lobe, lightly marinated in sun-tan oil is very popular and full of vitamins. A warm bum cheek salad with mixed leaves complements it very well”
