We went on a vacation, NOT to see just the standard tourist places(like Colloseum and museums), but more of the "typical" Italian lifestyle and places. This restaurant simply blew me away. It's a family restaurant passed down for generations. Same goes for the recipes. The food tastes TOTALLY different to what you taste in a regular "tourist/commercial" restaurants. To put it simple: "the taste of the Tiramisu made me become emotional!"
