Lively and informal restaurant in the heart of this quiet and yet trendy neighborhood. Share a table with stranges who might become friends, or take a amore private seat at one of the windows or outside. Food is just a plate of good pasta, some wine and maybe some salad and/or tiramisu. The waiters are handsome, but I haven´t been there for a while, so no guarantee.
