In-Depth Information
Head for the outside terrace with its mini maze, riot of flowers and pretty tiled tables. A
former cafe (the cinnamon rolls still sell out fast), the thin crispy-based pizzas are
Neapolitan-authentic and fabulous. Try the white pizza with its earthy topping of potatoes,
caramelised onions, cheese and baby spinach.
