Fernando's Italian

Hygiene: Yes, it is weird to start with such a chapter... Anyway the place is not properly clean. The sheets of paper on the table are uncomfortable and cannot exempt from washing the tablecloth. When I took seat there wasn't any cutlery, and whe I asked for it I was served with a dirty fork. After that I noticed that the wine cristal was dirty too. This time I decided to go directly at the bar to show also my disappointment, at this point it did not surprise me that the waiter had to discard 3 glasses before giving me a new one. The Stuff: They were not so attentive but probably because they were understaffed with respect to clients. The Place [edited after some explanation were given by the owner]: The local is not well maintained and poorly finished. It is not adequate for people that have difficulty in walking as toilets are accessible only by stairs. The Food: Typical Italian tourist trap! 1)Nonna's spaghetti meatballs. It is not even an Italian dish! But let's be technical. The tomato sauce left much to be desired and sweet. It tasted like ketchup. To be honest meatballs were OK. 2)Gnocchi al pesto. Fair enough. 4)Pizzas. As you can see fro the pictures the brown spots on the "mozzarella" certify that the product was bad and passed too much time in the oven. Poor ingredients. And again, mixing fish with cheese is considered a taboo in Italy (or something that has to be left at the mastery of a starred chef, which is not the case), so anchovies on a capricciosa is everything but typical Italian cuisine.
