Imagine a pie shop becoming a top-class restaurant, and the odd mix of humble decor, elegant service, hearty food and huge cellar falls into place. Vegetarians should give this place a wide berth: offal is the speciality. Pasta dishes including the traditional bucatini all’amatriciana are delicious.
