‘Salad-pizza’; pizza with kebab, lettuce, chilipaste, some kind of sour cream dressing and two leaves of basil (the latter an attempt to insist on the Italian connection).

The setting came complete with a piano player entertaining the diners discretly. We started out with a small trio of appetizers. Link: Del Posto – a secret club  Read More
