The small iron door nestled between a gym and ice-cream shop leads to a steep staircase and then a simple space with pure lines and an open kitchen that takes centre stage. If you manage to book one of the four seats at the counter, you can watch chef Marco Renzetti at close quarters as he demonstrates his culinary skill without the need to resort to too much technology. The focus of his single tasting menu is on classic Italian cuisine, albeit with the grill as the mainstay, although vegetarian options are also available. The pasta (cappeletti, cannelloni, tonnarelli etc) is made in-house and the risotto is an ever-popular choice with his customers.
