Plans For A Easy Scout Bench
The Hummingbird
A good match between the traditional and creative modern reinterpretations
A good match between the traditional and creative modern reinterpretations
Service: 9
We have the honor of being served by the owner of the premises. Always discreet, always perfect. Unique, small jarring waiting times, which were flat for a few rather long. But this is usually a good thing in a qualitative sense! Quality: 9
Dinner extraordinary event which is not only delicious, but also designed and presented in a modern and original. Exalted appetizers: shrimp cocktail sauce and chopped pistachio; grilled cheese with honey, pears and melted chocolate; Norcia ham with warm crostini. Among the first, missed the bow, a kind of soft potato dumplings stuffed with ricotta and spinach served with meat sauce. Level slightly lower than the rest, but still excellent, risotto alla marinara. Among the latter, the most exquisite cut of meat. Pay great attention to desserts: delicious chocolate mousse with cream, but here is what is the insuperable crema catalana. Indescribable! A special consistency, not semi-liquid like most of the Catalan cream, and a taste that is a unique bounty. So good that we could not resist, and asked - of course without success - to give us the recipe. In short, it was an unforgettable meal.

It is very easy to find, mostly for the fact that there is no signage. If nothing else, at least, is clearly visible from the street suddenly arise even after a curve. However, once it occurs, it is impossible to fail.
Price: 10
No one would have expected to spend 30-35 euros eating so extraordinary. For the quality of raw materials and the type of cuisine, this is a much better price than competitive.
Overall Rating: 9
The restaurant is above all aesthetically valid. In summer you can eat outside, and perhaps the beginning you may have the impression of being in a sort of open bar. But the beauty and subtlety of the inner zone, which is used in winter, just erase all doubt. The level of cooking is very high, with dishes prepared with excellent ingredients prepared and well kept even from the point of view of aesthetic presentation. The staff is delicious, the owner even more. How could a better deal?
Recommended for: anyone who wants to experience the dishes original, presented in a particular way, without straying too far from tradition and without spending a fortune.
