Extrabar di Petta Nicola e Vito Snc - Bar Pizzeria Kalinikta In Piana degli albanesi

07/06/2026: I ordered a plate of spaghetti carbonara, but it wasn't anything carbonara-esque: the supposed guanciale was actually pieces of ham, and the sauce was cream... According to tradition, cream is omitted and guanciale is added. However, the place is large and the service isn't bad; the waiters are courteous, and the food is generally good. Too bad about the carbonara...

28/05/2026: In the '90s, I often came here with my mother and father; we were regulars. They're no longer here, but every time I return to Pizzeria Carmen, it's like rediscovering a piece of my history. Some places change, while others manage to retain their flavors, atmosphere, and memories intact. Carmen, for me, is one of them. The atmosphere has remained the authentic family I remembered: welcoming, sincere, without artificial embellishments. The staff is always courteous, attentive, and capable of making you feel at home. The pizzas are truly excellent: light, well-seasoned, and balanced. I can finish them without any difficulty, and—especially important for me, given that I suffer from gastritis—at night I'm not thirsty or have that annoying feeling of heaviness that often accompanies certain pizzas. And that alone, today, is worth a lot. And then there are the crostini. A delight always and, I hope, forever. One of those flavors that belong not just to a menu, but to memories. There are places that serve food. And then there are places that, without even realizing it, become part of people's lives. Carmen, for me, is this.
