The wood-fired Cavallino earns raves for its perfectly charred, tender crust, while the overall vibe is one of rustic, soul-warming simplicity.
“This is amazing — it's soaked in rum, with raisins and candied fruit, it's wet when you touch it underneath and you can smell the good aroma. When you squeeze it, it's fantastic. I can't stop eating it, it's a pleasure. Wow, wow. You absolutely have to try this.”
