"TOP SPOT ! On the first morning of our 4 night 3 day vacation in beautiful Salerno in Italy we had to find a good breakfast place that suited our needs for the next few days. PLENTY OF ESPRESSO BARS ! The popular model in Salerno was a coffee shop that served pasties...lots of pastries and nothing else. We just can't do pastries for breakfast. At around 11am we decided to investigate this cafe a bit further inside.....it had lots of pastries too. THERE'S MORE ! We asked a guy behind the counter...a nice fellow named Vincenzo who though he spoke very limited English was able to tell us they could make us ham cheese omelettes. YEAH BABY ! We were thrilled and headed out the back to their cosy dining room. Now the reason we headed out the back rather than sit out the front of the cafe was the smoking.....Italians were lighting up everywhere we went and particularly on the outdoor patios of cafes restaurants. We ordered 2 x Ham Cheese Omelettes, 2 x Double Shot Cappuccinos...no lattes or latte art in Italy and a Fresh Squeezed Orange Juice. Our Double Shot Cappuccinos in smallish 8 oz cups hit the total satisfaction button. Thanks to Ciro the talented barista who even brought them to our table. Vincenzo our server brought us a filled carafe and glasses of cool water. DID YOU KNOW ? The tap water in Italy tastes sensational everywhere. A chef named Hasnain worked away making our Ham Cheese Omelettes while we watched from our table. We couldn't believe our luck choosing a cafe that could deliver us great coffees and a fresh cooked brekkie. BINGO ! Before we knew it we were devouring our totally scrumptious Ham Cheese Omelettes...our sides of toasty crunchy bread were a bit tough to get through....it's the Italian way. My Fresh Squeezed Orange Juice tasted perfectly good. We totally loved our late breakfast brunch so this was going to be our go to place for breakfast..and just a 10 minute walk from our apartment. WHOO HOO ! As we left I asked Vincenzo where could we find a great dessert place ? I nearly fell over when he said...Mr Whippy and pointed the way to our right. THAT WAS THE TIP OF A LIFETIME !

"An experience in the true entirety of the word, where my partner and I were welcomed by the dean of the place who immediately told us the history of the place and its fifty-year-old practice in catering, perhaps even more. My partner and I are pizza lovers, we prefer it to current contemporary pizza and o'scuorzo is the right place to enjoy this somewhat ancient type of pizza. We chose two pizzas: the potato and sausage, very good, where the home-made flavors of the ingredients stood out, and the smoked, a little less good than the first but at the same time tasty and tasty. The place highlights the 80s with its demodé style where the owner wants to soporically highlight those shining years which were of well-being and carefreeness, among other things in a good state of conservation and in order. Also nice is the apparently shy but friendly and helpful son who follows in his father's footsteps and learns about his exploits. In the end, with great enthusiasm, he offered us a chocolate and toffee at the same time as the bill. The bill was normal, however it seems It is out of place to pay both the cover charge and the service charge also because in places like this it is easy to leave a tip willingly and spontaneously, but what has been paid is worth the spectacle offered by the owner, his child and the dishes offered An experience worth repeating, perhaps with other dishes expertly proposed by the owner Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: €10–20"
