I had the homemade pasta with salmon and cream and it was so delicious, almost was like a vodka sauce which was a nice surprise! The dolce de nonna (not sure if that's it exact name) was such a surprise and so amazing - preferred it to the tiramisu if you are between them! If you love pasta like me then just go you won't regret it!!! Get there early or book as it is very small with...
