Our favourite restaurant. Good seafood place but we like to get a take away pizza and munch it sitting on the rocks with our feet in the Adriatic. Hence we named it - Pizza On The Rocks. Best pizza's.

Artisan shopping for all things Italian. Food, wine... what more could you ask for? Ah yeah, beer, grappa etc. A bit pricy, but all the different regions under one roof.
