Amore verace In Piacenza

08/12/2024: We looked for an alternative to the sandwich for lunch in Autogrill and not too far from the motorway. In addition to à la carte dishes (average prices), they also offer fixed price menus from €13 (first course, second course, side dish, water, coffee, cover charge) and from €9.50 (like the previous one excluding the first course). We chose the latter: I can't say I ate badly but not so good that I would want to go back in the future. It's a shame because the quality of the food is quite good, for example the slice of roast was really good quality, tender and well cooked but the sauce that accompanied it was very soupy. The spaghetti (taken from my husband) with meat sauce were good but should have been cooked a little less, normal green beans, while I would have something to say about the roast potatoes: boiled beforehand (and that's okay, many restaurants do this) unfortunately they had clearly been kept in the fridge... I can accept it at home if I don't want to waste it, but not in a restaurant. Potato boiled and sautéed in the pan, yes, but made the same day. Being placed at a table in an inconspicuous corner most likely did not make the service any easier, which was a bit slow (people who arrived after us were served earlier and quicker). Reading the various reviews I believe that the five stars are excessive but also those who give only one star saying that the food is inedible! It is a discreet refreshment point, certainly suitable for those who work in companies in the area, catering and service can be improved. A smile every now and then, especially to those who are polite, would be appreciated.
