Thank God that we found this place - the situation was looking grim. Stuck on a tour to the town of Assisi a couple hours outside of Rome, we were led to a lunch buffet, which screamed tourist trap everywhere. I ducked away next door in hopes of a better venue, and it admittedly didn't rub off as too authentic either. But it turned out to be one of the best meals on the trip. The carpaccio di bresaola was everything one would expect to taste from a northern Italian air-dried salt-cured beef (rather than straight raw beef) with rucola choppings, cheese shavings, and olive oil.
And it came down to only 10 Euros (US$12.50) a head. This was one potential disaster that was salvaged completely. Nice, especially considering the refreshing gelato and coffee bar upstairs. We've just gotta find more of these places.

Do you guys like ice cream? I thought guys do not like sweet things?
I know these guys personally, since I'm from Assisi. This is absolutely the best place in town!
If you go there again, say hello to Paolo, the cook with moustache! He's great!
