An interesting dessert. Pineapple holds the orange in place and drizzled over with a sugar syrup topped, with candied orange peel I believe. The dish has potential and other alcoholic possibilities. The peels were a little too tart and it did get too sweet towards the end.

Paper Moon
Located
just at the start of Naopoleone Street (Click here for review), this recommended
place (by Michael) for desserts, pastas and pizzas is a fantastic pit stop both
before and after shopping. Prices are fairly reasonable and the place I'd say
is popular. There was a queue just before opening and the place filled up
quickly. Prior booking is definitely needed for larger groups.

Spaghettu Tarantina
Spaghetti with clams, mussels, tomato and garlic €14
*Seafood
itself gets an A-star for freshness. Spaghetti is done well. However, am not
sure if it's a Italian trend but it's salty. Not wayyyy salty like other places
like in Rome, but still salty. That's probably the only big draw back to the
dish.*
Pizza Tartufata (Mozzerella, fontina, porcini,cream
tartufata, Mozerella, fontina cheese, porcini mushroom, truffle cream. €14
This dish
definitely caught my eye. Cheese on cheese with mushrooms and truffle? Sign me
up! Nice base that's light and having sliced thinly sliced mushroom on pizzas
is something I'd definitely incorporate into my future dishes for sure. It
gives a nice juicy bite to the dish!
Aqua Natural €3.50
x1
Comes inclusive for service and table side bread €3.50/pax
Fed 2. Total €38.50
A good
place to catch reasonably priced food, in an area with some overly priced
stuff. Okay to give it a try in a pleasant setting and atmosphere. Others have tried and fed back as okay only. A shout out goes to the truffle ice-cream. Perhaps another time. The place is popular though as previously mentioned.

A short
walk from Marriott Hotel and very near Wagner station, this quaint corner shop
also came recommended by others (Michael). A fantastic introduction to
Florentine style steak, the must order here!

Fiorentina All'etto €5.50/100g.
Minimum 600g order. Ours 650g €35.75
*A
really good piece of steak. *Florentine style consist of a T-Bone traditionally
sourced from either the Chianina or Maremma breed of cattle. The steak is
grilled over charcoal fire, seasoned with salt, sometimes black pepper and
olive oil applied immediately after the meat is retired.*Wikipedia.
They even
cut up the meat for you! Really tender and juicy, with good fat distribution.
In fact, i suspect that the meat is dry aged as well. The addition of quality
olive oil is something I'd love to try out. It's less of a guilty pleasure than
adding anchovy butter (strange sounding right but it's really good). A must
try!*
Costolettine d'agnello (scottadito) €20.00
Lamb on Grill
(EPIC FAIL)
(EPIC FAIL)
An epic
fail. The lamb Chops are really thin and were cooked medium well, or well well.
A good char but perhaps not what we're used to. Flavored and seasoned well, but
presentation and portion lacked.
Dessert €6
An interesting dessert. Pineapple holds the orange in place and drizzled over with a sugar syrup topped, with candied orange peel I believe. The dish has potential and other alcoholic possibilities. The peels were a little too tart and it did get too sweet towards the end.
Aqua €3
Compulsory
charge 2x€3
Total: €72.75
Florentine
steak is the order! Fairly priced I'd say and well worth the try. It was
strange however they didn't ask for the doneness of either meat which
presumably comes standard in most places. The lamb too was a little of a let
down, but staff do not allow for a change of order once order is made. Perhaps
something to be aware of.
Florentine
steak! The steak style to order and give a try.
