"Fabio’s Restaurant in Old Town has been a family favourite for nigh on thirty years, since my parents first took me there as a kid. Every experience was a special moment, it was always a treat to dine there. Gianni, and his attentive team, treats us as royalty and still gives us attention despite their regular, enormous amount of covers. Always an ‘on-the-house’ aperitif offered to close the meal. As for the food, I recommend sticking close to the traditional structure for Italian dining: • Antipasti: a couple of small shared dishes, such as: ≈ insalata di mozzarella e pomodori ≈ insalata di mare ≈ trio fritti • Followed by Primo (1° course : pasta dishes served as starter portions especially, the fettuccine: ≈ fettuccine al salmone ≈ fettuccine all’ortolana • Secondo (2° : go for a special if possible, the fish is usually a standout, or: ≈ pollo alla’cacciatora ≈ filetto rossini filetto alla boscaiola • Contorno (sides : usually comes with the main so no need to order separately • Dolce (dessert : panna cotta or banana di fabio followed by espresso latte digestivo, limoncello being a personal favourite Suitable for: ≈ Romantic meals, family, parties, solo dining ≈ IBS-friendly, just ask for alternatives and they’ll accommodate ≈ Portion sizes appropriate to Italian meal structures ≈ Vegetarians"
