AI summary of what 3 dish mentions say about the food
Reviewers praise the pain perdu as a standout, calling it a warm, indulgent triumph. The overall vibe is one of refined comfort, with every plate feeling like a heartfelt embrace.
“Maybe the best thing I ate: the pain perdu. The acidity of the raspberry makes its way between the crunchiness and sweetness of the caramelized sugar together with the moisture and melt-in-your-mouth quality of the slice of bread. Truly incredible, like the whole avalanche of pastries I tried.”

Uovo alla Fiorentina
I tried the Uovo alla Fiorentina with poached egg, spinach and Royale. Very good, only note is the bread was a bit hard.
Pancake con Ricotta
Then I moved on to the ricotta pancakes. Very good.
Pain Perdu
Maybe the best thing I ate: the pain perdu. The acidity of the raspberry makes its way between the crunchiness and sweetness of the caramelized sugar together with the moisture and melt-in-your-mouth quality of the slice of bread. Truly incredible, like the whole avalanche of pastries I tried.
