Kobe Bryant is normally a very busy man this time of the year. However, Bryant’s Los Angeles Lakers got swept in the first round by the San Antonio Spurs and he is nursing an achilles injury, so it home sweet home or Kobe. He made up for all the years on the road during her birthday.
Bryant flew in Fabrizio de Togni, the head chef at Vanessa’s favorite restaurant in Milan, to cook for the family.
“He’s a friend,” Bryant wrote of de Togni “and agreed to fly in for Vanessa’s birthday dinner and prepare her favorite dishes.”
By the looks of it, the dinner included eggplant parmesan and penne arrabbiata.
When you make $30 million a year and you can’t fly to Italy to go to the restaurant, you can do things like this and bring the restaurant to you. From the look at Italy’s Paper Moon’s mouth-watering menu and it’s easy to understand why this is the Bryants’ restaurant of choice.
