Benvenuti Welcome Willkommen
One of the rare bad food experiences in italy - As we haven't eaten in Tobia before we did not know how was the quality before and had no preconceptions. Unfortunately the whole experience was a big disappointment.
The... read more antipasto of the house was nondescrip - even the bread of the crostini was not toasted. Also the pasta dishes were a disappointment - especially the classic Spaghetti alla Carbonara which did not have even one of its' elementary ingredient: egg yolk. This was replaced heavy handed by black pepper. The restaurant offered cheese (Grana Padana) in a small plastic bag instead of fresh grated cheese as normally in restaurants here.
While still middle of our pasta dish, the waitress interrupted us and asked what we would like to have as a dessert or would we prefer a coffee.
The dessert we ordered was Crema Catalana (reminds of Creme Brulee) but what we got was whipped cream with "thin slices"of biscuits or type of baked dough used in puff pastry. The meal was cheap but it is not an excuse for the quality of this meal. During all these years we have been living in Italy and traveling all over we could remember only less than five bad experiences. Unfortunately this was one of those.
