Last week, before Christopher left, we had a lovely meal at this excellent restaurant. Christopher has the photos on his camera, or I'd share them with you. We had a rocky start, walking out of another restaurant after being ignored for half an hour. Then, Christopher had the idea to ask our favourite butcher where he would recommend. He was bang on. He asked us if we wanted fish, which we did. He then flagged down a passerby and asked her to take us to the restaurant, and we are so glad he did. We'd never have found it because it is draped in scaffolding and behind some barriers erected because the commune is pedestrianizing the road beside the restaurant.
Their speciality is fish, any way you want it. The chef is a woman, and fabulous at her job. For starters we had baby squid (tiny little neonates that I'm sure will send me to hell for devouring), a light fish in an orange reduction. Then Christopher had the best nero sepia pasta either of us has ever tasted and I had a delicious fish grilled. I finished with a lovely marsala. If you are near, go; Corso B. Mattarella, just on some stairs to the port, beside a park and across the street from the Castellemare Commune (City Hall).
