A simple starter salad can tell you so much about a restaurant. At Cinque the message is very promising - extremely fresh, a perfectly balanced dressing and with lettuce varieties you'll hardly find at the supermarket. Their home-made pasta (e.g. with ricotta and artichokes) or Italian classics like the ossobuco are equally impressive. Between courses you can admire the collection of Italian artefacts arranged on the walls - from madonnas to football pennants. The tables however are kept in elegant simplicity, with white tablecloths and wooden bistro chairs.
