Food includes pollo alla Diavolo (chicken breast cooked with porcini mushrooms and red onion and tomato sauce topped with melting goats cheese), funghi Mamma Mia (pan fried mushrooms with a garlic, white wine and tomato sauce topped with mozzarella) and trancio all’Amaretto (slice of sponge cake in Amaretto liqueur topped with Amaretto cream and decorated with Amaretto biscuits!).
