We’re going to find out what those large fruits are that seem to grow on the same trees as limes.
For now, however, our objective was a tiny restaurant with outstanding reviews. Its name, Benvenuti in Casa, translates as Welcome Home.
The husband works the front and the wife is the chef. Their six-year-old son, when not in school, spends his time in the restaurant. This was hanging next to our table.
The bambino has probably outgrown the small chair we spied across the room.
The husband is a charming individual who speaks good English and shows great pride in what is served. We were all impressed, from the focaccia and grissini onward.
We shared two appetizers, Burrata with raw shrimp…
Eggplant Parmigiana…
Tom’s Octopus pasta…
Ellyn’s pasta with clams and lemon sauce (delicious)…
Brian’s tasty meatballs with penne…
Kathy’s Rigatoni with Bolognese sauce…
One of the best dining experiences of our trip, it was reasonably priced and very satisfying.
No need for dinner last night! These appetizers served us during the Hilton’s Executive Lounge Happy Hour were more than enough.
