the restaurant in the background (gilli) has a prime location for the tourist crowd. i'm not sure howe we got sucked in, but our senses got the better of us as we slinked out the back before putting our orders in. ordinarily, i have no qualms with price; but i'm not sure of the appeal of spending 20 euros for a hamburger. perhaps if it's made from kobe beef topped with foie gras and truffles; but no, this was just a hunk of beef on a bun. oh, and you want fries with that? that'll be 7 euros more. while missing out on a juicy burger may be appealing, this was italy afterall, and we found ourselves planted in a little pizzeria with a fine bottle of wine instead. total damage: 50 euros for 2 pizzas, lots of crostinis, and a nice bottle of chianti classico. very nice-ah!
