Next door to what has always been one of Bucharest’s best cafes, this Italian restaurant (that goes for gawdy orange decor in a big way) keeps coming up with the goods on the food front. Whether its the huge portions of seafood pasta, the cracking wine list or the chocolate cake to end all chocolate cakes, we can’t help ourselves going back time after time. Or we would if we could afford the bloody expensive prices. Start saving now for next Christmas.
