Pina and Roberto run with discretion and courtesy a bar/caffè which epitomizes Italian rural life. The parking is full of rugged mud splattered Pandas and working vehicles, slick city motors are absent. Most customers pop in on their way in or out of town, for an excellent coffee - or something a little stronger - and a cornetto. Invariably groups of friends congregate briefly (the time it takes to drink three sips of espresso) to share news and friendship. Many of the serious bicyclists, who make peddling up the nearby roads look a breeze, stop here for a coffee to fuel them on their way. Ponder their physique as you decide if you really really want to exercise to pay for the irresistible cream filled buns imbued with the inimitable taste of Italian life. I suggest you do. Useful to know is it’s the last loo (pristinely clean of course) before heading up into the hills.
