Wow, this cecina is so good!
I admit it, I'm from Pisa and I came to Livorno for pizza.
Do I regret it? CERTAINLY NOT!
Brought here by a dear friend, five of us had dinner to spend a quiet evening together, as we do from time to time.
It was a more than welcome discovery.
I went there after a day spent out and about without a moment's rest and with a measly sandwich for lunch just to put something to my stomach, so when I got there, I was definitely hungry.
I left full, satisfied, not weighed down, and with a smile on my face.
Andrea is a top-notch host.
He's very attentive to what he does, in love with his job, and with a great attention to his customers and all their most unlikely cravings.
Oh right... Passion, so much, a rare thing to find in these places these days.
Very fair and modest prices. Spending €24 each for everything we ate and drank, including desserts and coffee/punch, is truly nothing.
The place is small, but very personal. Carefully and unmistakably decorated, there was truly a touch of Andrea everywhere. Reservations are recommended, even just out of respect for their organization.
The fact is, I ordered a "Lo Squalo," a decidedly rich and flavorful pizza. I asked for a modification due to my inability to appreciate gorgonzola, but Andrea offered to replace it with another dairy-based ingredient, which I definitely found useful and tasty during the pizza tasting.
The only real problem there was one: the chickpea cake was MURDERFUL.
It was our appetizer (with the addition of eggplant, both spicy and mild, kindly offered by Andrea), and nothing, it did any harm. I was tempted to get up after eating it and cancel my pizza so I could continue eating more! Well, I'm obsessed with cecina, so it was truly love at first bite!
To finish our dinner, after we ordered dessert, Andrea even offered us an amaro, which was a welcome and much appreciated (King Kong ♥)!
Andrea's wife and the other girl (alas, I don't know their names) who served us throughout the evening were also very kind and helpful.
Added to the list of places to return to ♥
