Opening Caldesi in Campagna
We finally received our signs yesterday so we are open now to those intrepid customers who feel like being some of the first. As yet no till has arrived, sadly that doesn’t mean your food is free but that you get a beautiful hand written bill by the lovely Jess or Salvatore.
Apart from the till and the pictures that are still waiting to be hung I think we are almost there and actually it looks jolly nice even if I say so myself. Gregorio’s food is lovely as my rapidly dissapearing waistline will tell you.
Kirsty from Schemes Interior Design company and I had a great time choosing all the lovely fabrics, papers and chairs and the whole look is modern rustic. At least that is what we keep telling ourselves. Modern rustic. You will have to tell me what you think. I could go on tweaking with objects etc forever but I have to stop. And I never need an excuse to go shopping for more ornaments, glassware etc to decorate the restaurant.
Now all we need is you, we have the space, the log fires, the music and the food and wine. But for atmosphere you need people, so give us a few days (Giancarlo and I and the children are off to Abergavenny food festival this weekend) and come and try us out.
