For the last few weeks I have been coming here to get latte macchiato and today when I went I can firstly see the difference in the attitude between the today's bartender and the previous ones I have encountered (which were nice). Secondly, I ordered the same order that I have been ordering which is indicated on the website to cost 1.50 euros as that is also the same price that I have been paying for it. I don't know if the bartender saw that I was an international or he just felt like it, but he charged me that same coffee 2 euros. I also saw that the paying machine firstly showed 1.50 euros and then he switched it to 2.00. I just think it is really not nice to do that to someone who regularly comes here to get their coffee (which will not be the case anymore) or doing that to someone because they are an international.

A un certo punto, due di noi, avendo visto che era finito quasi tutto all'interno del locale, vanno a prendere una pizza romana dal locale accanto da dividersi, come ricordavamo essere consentito fino all’anno scorso, una consuetudine di buon senso, tipica di quelle forme di tolleranza e collaborazione tra attività vicine che rendono più vivibili le serate d’estate. Ma a quanto pare sono cambiate le regole. Fin qui, niente da dire. In un posto normale, un cameriere con un minimo di garbo ti avvisa e si risolve tutto, invece qui passa il tizio che sparecchia i tavoli e ti fa una sparata allucinante e ti caccia letteralmente dal locale dicendoti "PRENDI LA TUA PIZZA E VATTENE". Viviamo un’epoca in cui la sciatteria è diventata una cifra stilistica, lo capisco, quindi passi pure l’arredo raccattato dai cassonetti, i tavoli appiccicosi, le patatine da discount, i panini rinsecchiti, il personale che ti ruba i bicchieri ancora non finiti senza dire nulla. Passi tutto, perché d’estate a Bologna ci si accontenta di un pezzetto di terra dove respirare. Ma c’è un limite anche...
