Tasks 13 & 14 of Marcy's Scavenger Hunt

Still going..."Have lunch one afternoon (or just grab a drink) at the restaurant named after an 18th century dwarf who once served as both court jester and keeper of the royal wine keg. This man, despite his size, was reportedly quite a prodigious drinker. According to legend, his death came about when he mistakenly drank a glass of water. Take your picture at the restaurant. (Extra points if you can find a picture or statue of the guy and get a picture by it)."

This scavenger hunt is full of cheats discluding me, but the fact of the matter is I've been around these places a gazillion times and many of them are tourist central, which means my patience wears thin quickly with the crowds. Ryan and I ate at Perkeo when we first moved over and I remember their extensive Italian menu quite distinctly. It has a cool courtyard and an all around good, cozy atmosphere, BUT is tourist central. Bonus points, indeed Marhs, if I could have scaled this wall to get up there with Perkeo, himself.
