A grand breakfast for a grand result

Celebrating Lando's podium with Ricotta Pancakes, Prosciutto and Melon.

What is it about Italy? I mean, aside from the great food...

The last two seasons have brought some of the most exciting and unpredictable races in Monza, Mugello and again at Imola yesterday. Happy to kick off my 50th birthday week with a podium for Lando Norris and the papaya McLaren.

After a 6AM race start Southern California time, the family enjoyed a delicious breakfast outdoors of fresh cantaloupe melon, dry prosciutto and delicious ricotta pancakes, paired with a sparkling sangria. If you haven't tried them yet, the ricotta pancakes have a smooth, slightly dense texture that's subtly sweet and less bread-y than traditional American-style pancakes.
