Da Claro In Cecina

It's nothing special, several dishes like the mixed antipasto and mussels marinara tasted like nothing, the battered vegetables are to be avoided, the fried food is edible but not exceptional, their crema catalana is a panna cotta.

My girlfriend and I had dinner a few nights ago ❤ (I really hope she's my girlfriend because I don't want to have drunk too much these days and gotten my hopes up 🤣🤣🤣) and we were immediately greeted by the owner, Mauro, who waited for her to sit down to grab her right ankle and put some electrical cable ties on her shoe. I thought it was some unusual welcome ritual for the place and didn't give it much thought until a suspicious-looking guy, Massimo, emerged from the kitchen, clearly in a state of confusion. Throughout the dinner, he railed against an employee, boasting that he'd just locked her in the closet despite her pleas for release. 🤣🤣🤣... But the best part was when she, Martina, the house chef, joined us, telling us stories of pans catching fire and of workers mesmerized by the flames, standing there contemplating the place at risk of going up in flames without lifting a finger. In short, a dangerous "dreg" to avoid unless you want to laugh and feel at home, where the food is divine, with tastings of exquisite dishes and generous portions, where the bill is barely more expensive than an aperitif, and above all, a magical place, where I had such a great time and had never before felt so at ease among such extraordinarily simple yet welcoming people. To Mauro and his better half, mostly quiet but always alert and attentive to the needs of the customers, to Massimo and Martina, friends I hope to hug again soon, and to all the staff, I say heartfelt thanks for the wonderful evening. I left a little piece of my heart in this place ❤. FOR ME IT'S A 10 WITH HONOURS. Martina Macchioni
