For lunch today we went to Ciao's, a lovely little Italian restaurant where they put on a great lunch buffet. It's not large - fresh bread, grilled veggies in olive oil, a couple of chicken dishes, a couple of pasta dishes, pizza and canoli - but everything is really good.
Today there was a large group of people in the corner, all speaking Italian. Soon someone brought out a guitar to play and another man started singing. Our waitress told us that he used to be a professional opera singer, and it showed - he was excellent! The songs sounded like they could be traditional Italian songs, and sometimes the simple guitar accompaniment made the song sound like something from "The Godfather".
Lovely, lovely lunch.
