Perino Food & Wine, MB "Skanu Skanu" — Restaurant in Anykščiai

2nd visit here while staying not far away. It's a great place to chill and eat. Good food quality for its price, especially competed to neighbors.

1st day (no photos, my bad) ordered mussels and spaghetti Bolognese.

The mussels where great, delicate flavor from souces to the fair amount (500g). Also,as a plus, no closed ones (usually in Vilnius there are 2-4 that are hard to open if even open). Would rate mussels 8.5/10

Amount of Spaghetti was good and sauce not oily, bit too reach for garlic, but the amount of cheese was just absolutely perfect. Also, spaghetti texture was soft and firm, would rate them 8.9/10

Regarding the alcoholic cocktails. Good cost, the taste is also good but not enough ice. It melts too fast on the hot sunny day, due to that the drink taste changes. Personally, not enough acid (prefer more citrus in drinks).

On 2nd visit (next day and with photos) Ordered lasagna and Gnocchi with pesto and mozzarella.

Let's start with lasagna, when the order came, was amazed, how it looked. On the plate it looked like a mess and never I have seen such a lasagna. But the taste was totally different story. Great, texture, taste, sauce and fresh arugula, would rate it 9/10

About, Gnocchi with pesto and mozzarella, great pesto flavor, enough salty and Gnocchi with a appropriate texture, but only few mozzarella balls and a bit too oily sauce,...

Great friendly staff. Offered to serve children first, as we had to wait ~1 hour for the porkk chop and grilled zuccini salad. According to kids, spaghetti with chicken was bland, though the chicken was really great. Gnocchi in Bolognese sauce was good. Pork chop was really great - server hot, tender, great taste. My grilled zuccini salad was a dissapointment as the zuccini was cold, a bit too much of balsamic and the bruschetta served on the side was not freshly made (cold, not chrispy). Latte - too bland even for me, who likes a lot of milk in my coffee. Banana caramell cake and chocolate panna cotta were really good. To sum up: average, but...

Food was not up to the high price that was advertised on menu. Left hungry. Ordered pasta with seafood and missed the actual sea food in it. Only three shrimps and three mussels, no octopus or other sea food at all. Pasta tasted like from second range wheat. Italian bruschetta tasted like to do it yourself at home , not the real deal. Spaghetti bolognese mainly will eat spaghetti as very little meat in it. Music was nice and relaxing, service was polite. So if you are very hungry it is ok to feel up the stomach...
