I had invited my friend to try this new restaurant. We had made reservation but noone was reconfirm our visit. The environment and ambience was attractive and cozy. We were escorted to upstairs for dining and saw an open kitchen. The table layout was simple and the napkin like a cloth used in kitchen, I don't like this napkin. The service staff was friendly and attentive service. He was introduced and upsell the appetizer and soup course with a blackboard. We was not interested in this and studied the menu later.

We ordered as below:

Ceasar salad and 8 hours Tripe. The vegetables used was very fresh and the Ceasar sauce was very mild in taste, we can enjoy the freshness. The 8 hours Tripe was very hot from the oven. The tripes was very tender with other ingredients, I even don't think they had some pork. It was very tasty and goes well with some bread, but the bread was cool and very hard.

We order a Italian pizza (I forgot the name). The filling was cheese and herbs. It was light and great for share.

A classic linguini which was in small portion and salty but al dente.

At the last, we finished our meal with something sweet. We ordered Tiramisu and cinnamon gelato for share. The Tiramisu presented not as usual in other restaurant, but the ice-cream on top was nice with this dessert. The cinnamon gelato was not too sweet and I like this flavour. I think it was a homemade gelato.

The pace of service was fine at first, but later we think there were someone waiting for our table and the staff intended to push us to finished our meal asap. They even send us the bill quickly after they clear up our table. Finally, we still tips for good food but not the service.
