Volemose bene — Restaurant in Milan

Found this restaurant on google map for traditional Italian food, seems they are one of the popular local restaurants in that area, I walked in and assigned a table at outdoor which I wanted. Asked for the English menu but they didn’t have so I can only asked Google translate to help me (which is the most reliable way😊) Picked the fried pumpkin flowers which I never tried and it stuffed with cheese and battered fried, very fluffy n totally not greasy. I order the fried seafood mixed plate by mistake due to miss reading the words on the menu, the portion is big and good for sharing if you have a group of people.

Amatriciana with bucatini was beyond al-dente, I would say 'undercooked' but I realise it can be a regional preference. It was difficult to eat with a fork. I wish to end on a high and say the fried artichoke was delicious, the beer cold and the...

The service is even worse than the amount of “peppe” in the caccio e peppe pasta. We are a couple and sat at a table for three since we had bags with us. The waiter gave us menus and everything and 15 minutes later came to ask us why are we sitting at a table for three since it’s only the two of us. Almost made a scene. We said we can switch tables if that’s a problem and he started talking something in italian with his colleagues and ignored us. He was super rude. We ordered caccio e peppe and carbonara pasta and the amount of pepper in them was so much you couldn’t taste...
