Little Italy

Tonight, we wanted to find a dinner venue that had a bit more splendour. After returning to our hotel for a rest, I got out my tablet to start exploring. I found a lovely little family-owned Italian restaurant that looked just the job and downloaded their menu. It was only a short walk away, though we did wander if we were walking into a Goodfellas front or whether it’d be heaving because of the reviews. Thankfully, it wasn’t. The staff were very polite and attentive and dressed to suit. I decided for the traditional Mama’s meatballs, while Mum opted for a chicken and mushroom pasta dish. We got given a complimentary bread basket and were left to soak in the old-world surroundings of terracotta pots and photographs on the walls. The prices were fair for the size of the portions. Afterwards we went for a wander through some backstreets and found a street of local bars, each with their own character.
