La piola libreria di Catia In Torino

22/12/2023: Old trattoria, traditional Piedmontese food with some focus on fish. Favorite dishes: vitello with tuna sauce and super tripe

21/11/2023: it's one of those restaurants that when you enter you feel like you're taking a step back in time, to the 70s/80s, with some furnishings, such as the chandeliers, so old that they have now become modern antiques; on the walls the faux wood plastic paneling that hasn't been used for 40 years. Despite this, or perhaps also because of this, or perhaps due to the friendliness of the managers or the simple goodness of the dishes and the generous portions, it is a welcoming and reassuring place like those old aunts where you go for lunch with your family at the Sunday: you know that he will cook you the same things as always, but that they will be good and made with care. It is a place that offers you what you expect, for lunch the menu offers a couple of first courses and a couple of second courses, simple pasta dishes like the ones you would make at home, but as good and plentiful as your grandmother would make them . And as we said before, it is a place where everything has remained as it was in the 80s, even the prices, this seems to be one of the very rare cases where they converted the prices from Lire to Euros without doubling everything. In short, it is not a place where you would take a girl on a first date to impress her, but a place where you would go every day on your lunch break because you are not looking for anything amazing, but you also don't want any nasty surprises
