My favorite restaurant at the moment, serves Italian cusine.
The food is good and fresh, nothing exceptional, the location is splendid.
The service is always erratic, there is a sense of predictable chaos.
It is the sheer genuineness of the welcome., the natural personalities of waiters and other that is such a pleasing contrast to the superficially formal, the flacidly cold behaviour in most other eating establishments nearby.
Strange which the most important ingredients can be!
