So you made an exception for him? Typical.Bruno was eating in Franco's today. Didn't get the normal curt and miserable service.
Another vote here for La Capaninna, just off St James St. Most of the staff used to work at Al Forno when it was indisputably the best in town. Very untrendy decor, but good food, cooked by Italians (which is not the case at many so-called Italian restaurants). That's not to say that other nationalities can't make decent pasta or pizza, of course.
