Must Try: For chicken lovers Spaghetti with chicken scallopini(pasta),  snack platter, country fried chicken platter and Cesar salad are few good bets. The vegetarians can opt for garden salad with garlic toast, eggplant au rratin, Vegetarian pizza, lasagna vegetarian or spaghetti vegetarian.  If you want to try something different opt for the Lobster Bisque and spinach cannelloni with shrimps. The homemade Lasagna ( beef) is a must try. For desserts try banana split, homemade cheese cake or baked pancakes with ice cream. Iced roasted hazelnut café , strawberry wonderland and iced Macchacino with red beans and jelly goes well with the food.
