Have been watching a lot of cooking shows lately, and that reminds me when I was Italy decades ago. An Italian friend took me to this restaurant. Well, if you didn't know it was there, you would've passed it. It was in the middle of an industrial area, not a place to visit unless you know where you were going. Just a steel door.
Anyway, the place was run by a very old lady, in her 80's I would think, and there was no menu. You ate what you were served. The wine was poured into kitchen glasses, and when my friend on my behalf asked to have an extra glass for the water on the side, she bluntly told him that I could use the same glass.
However, the restaurant was kinda famous and the food was delish. But a special experience I must admit.

we went to a few places like that in Italy, figuring out what to order with no menus and not knowing any Italian was always fun, but the food (and prices) was great! yum
More interesting than visiting any restaurant with tourists only.
