Comme ci comme ca pizzas… there are so fantastic pizza places around Como, however, this one is not one of them. You’ll eat and won’t be hungry, but pizzas are not great, especially on the Italian scale.

My wife ordered the pasta with tomato sauce and fresh basil. The fresh basil consisted of two basil leaves! She also ordered some pan-fried vegetables, also for €5.
