If you find yourself around Castrovillari, don't miss the opportunity to enjoy this chef's creations. Of course, better if you...

The menu stated that products are “frozen”. When my husband received his meal, it was still cold and we asked the server to warm it up a little more. He apologized repeatedly. When paying for the meal, they tried give us some dried pasta but we do not believe that would be able to take food home...
