Cold beer, freshly baked pizza and a street full of Sicilians, somehow this seems a little preferable to a TV dinner in front of yet another period drama (though they do still have a soft spot in my English heart).
We opted for a family sized pizza, an enormous platter fit for, well, a family… or, as in our case, hungry girls on a budget (€7 euros per pizza – I’d say one serves 2-3 adults for dinner). Pair that with 600ml bottles of Birra Moretti (€2) poured into plastic cups and you have yourself a frill-free, but entirely perfect Italian experience.
Too full to make the walk home, we waddled a few doors down to Sughero & co for €5 cocktails and bizarre bar chit chat in our broken italian (including a frozen and blissfully fresh strawberry daiquiry… the perfect dessert replacement).
Minimal damage on the purse strings and no compromise on the experience. Via Chiavettieri is a must for any budget gourmet.
Note: we wandered down this very same street the next morning and it was entirely lifeless, this is just one of those little gems that only comes out of hibernation when the sun dips below the horizon.
