The mint tea here is off the chain good. Make sure you stir it though!
Come here often enough and you might get approach by a news or radio crew asking you for an interview
Try an espresso pulled from the San Marco lever. It's worth the extra time.
- holy hell, the ginger herbal tea is quite possibly the best ive EVER had.
The coffee cake with the caraway seeds and currents is delicious!

"The Vermentino wine pairs perfectly with Crude di Zucchine. The salad achieves a light but satisfying taste. The lemon and mint balance out the heavier flavors of the squash, cheese, and fried almonds"
