First successes

Every evening, and on Sundays in particular, regular customers and passing tourists asked for traditional local dishes; rabbit and braised foods, but above all agnolotti and "tajarin". And it was the pasta itself which led to the success of the restaurant.

With the precious Mrs. Marina in the kitchen, not so much as cook - Masoero would never have ceded the palm of chef to anyone else - but in charge of preparing the sheet of pasta dough: a habitual figure in every restaurant and pasta shop of yesteryear (the women called "sfogline" were a true and proper category) now exceedingly hard to find.
