Cold Passion In Scalea

14/04/2026: I've been going to this place since high school; it was the go-to place for breakfast, sandwiches, and lunch at the nearby high school. It was run by the family of a friend/classmate. Then, over the years, it changed ownership, lost the ownership of the high school next door, and became a pizzeria/bar. My experience after not going for years wasn't the best. The place was tidy and clean, even though it felt like time had stood still 30 years ago. The service was a bit slow, but not the waitress's fault; in fact, she had to split her time between the bar and managing the pizzeria. The music in the dining room was too loud, so much so that we couldn't even hear each other at the table. The pizza wasn't bad, though I'd chosen it with different expectations; I was expecting something more "Calabrese"...
