The first time I went the place was full inside but there were two tables still free outside in their teeny courtyard.
I opted to try for a table inside as I thought it looked like rain. In Ireland? Impossible!!!
Anyhow I queued and managed to get a table within 10 minutes in the room that looks like you're in someone's sitting room not a restaurant. Super cute in the basement on Dawson Street.
Took a look at the menu and it took me quite a bit of time to choose my sweet treat. Everything sounded so good - and looked it too. You can drool over the cakes on display while you queue.
I ordered a chocolate cannolo (not cannoli as this is the singular!), an Americano and a San Pellegrino limonata. The three items came to €8.20.
The cannolo was delicious!!!
It's got to be a good sign when you can hear a lot of Italian being spoken around you, right?
The staff are pleasant and efficient.
I really wanted to get a tiramisu to take away but decided I probably shouldn't be so greedy. So I have an excuse to go back and that's definitely for next time.
Second visit was just for take away. I picked up an apple cake and a cannolo.
Third visit was for breakfast. I had the toast with butter and jam and a large americano. I also got a couple of treats to take away. I got a Torta Della Nonna and a nutella and coconut cake.
Everything I've had so far has been DELICIOUS but actually still haven't had the tiramisu :)
