Initially I was concerned as we spent a lot of time at just one restaurant trying many dishes but given the weather this was just want we needed. We did venture to 2 other venues and the gelato was a great way to finish. I appreciate that Lara spent way more than the allotted time with me to give me time to digest given that it was just me on my own. This was very reasonably priced.”
