"LIFE" New Bar Torinese Snc — Restaurant in Trieste

randomly came cross this place as i wanted to try Hugo drink. our waitress was nice and spoke english. my drink was good. other than that, the place itself was quite underwhelming. we came past 5 pm, late enough for a proper aperitivo. but this place only has potato chips and pre-fabbed sandwiches - nothing else to be served with our drinks.it is located on a touristy trap street - we got some african dude approaching us asking for money. machine could not process my CC (which is accepted any where even in small ice cream shop in southern italy), toilet is problematic as it is one of those toilet bowl that has no seat and it is installed to the wall so high even for someone with healthy strong knees (squatting is not an issue for me) it was near impossible to take a piss properly! then this place is the first bar/cafe in a major european city that does not allow you to use their wifi. lol. not a place i...

After a brief pause we popped into this very busy cafe as one table became free. Buzzing at 6pm on a Friday. A large beer a la spina (6€) for Paulicarus. A wine for the boss and a diet Coke for me. (As if...) It came with three huge bowls of scoobie snacks but we declined. (..and later on small butties as well) Still stuffed from all the earlier offerings. Seems a nice place to visit. Plenty of locals, hard working waitress. Sat on the front pavement area of a pedestrian street. Piped dance music hissing away inside...( tisha tish tisha tisha tisha etc etc etc....why?) One shared facility at the rear; without a seat lets the place...
