We arranged to meet friends here, a very busy buzzy, restaurant in Festival Place.  My first visit to Festival Place, loads of shops ladies (!) & well worth a visit as is Ciao Baby, an ideal place for lunch!  The staff are friendly, food mainly Italian as the name suggests, and it has an excellent atmosphere.

The Pinot Grigio we enjoyed whilst making our choices was very gluggable & reasonably priced.

     

Our Starters, above L-R, Prawns with Chilli Oil, Mushrooms in a Cream & Gorganzola sauce, Parmesan Shavings.  Other choice, no pic, A thick mixed Bean & Pasta soup.

Mains, 2 0f us had Quattro Stagioni pizzas on Left, Right, OssoBuco, other choice, no pic, Spaghetti All' Arrabbiata.

Puds L-R below Orange & Lemon cake, Pears in Marsala, & Italian baked cheesecake.

We finished with coffees, a very tasty lunch!

     

     

For those of you who, like me, love your puds, just look below, all home made, all heavenly & all available to either eat in or to buy in the Deli!!
