For lunch:
I was immediately attracted by Zia Rosetta, possibly the smallest place on earth, specialized in “Rosette” the typical rose shaped bread filled with the beast Italian ingredients, all coming from Campania and Lazio. The result is a traditional sandwich with the most innovative and healthy ingredients. Yum! Try the mini rosette to taste as much as you can with a glass of a great wine.
