When meeting for coffee one morning, Austin Withers mentioned walking by a place whose walls were covered in post it notes. I had to go. It was one of my favorite meals in Italy- a one man operation, cool because it was honest & fucking good. The owner, Alessandro, is that one man- greeting everyone with a host’s panache and serving us cheese, meats, olive oil & bread which all came from his son’s farm. Incredibly chic. When I open my own cafe, Alessandro will be in mind.
