Taste Test in a new Restaurant near by

What´s going on in my neighbourhood? New restaurants are popping up where for many years there was not really an improvement in the gastro scene to see.

We have a sports complex a block away were soccer, tennis and gymnastics are the main sports. There is a restaurant attached, that is often for the people to sit and eat after they did their Workout.
The owners and the menus changed quite a lot of times, from Balkan to Greek to Italian. And for months it was closed in between, until they found some new owners.

Since this April it is reopened and has Italian cuisine. They even added a new name by translating the name of the sports club Rot -Weiß to Ristaurante Rosso e Bianco. Fancy.


I´ve heard good and bad Things about the service and the food there and wanted to eat there to make up my mind. My foodie friend and I went there last night.

When we go to Italian restaurants we start with Vitello Tonnato, we can see and taste the differences to the other ones of this dish and can compare.
The presentation was a bit uncreative and boring and just four single capers on top were a shame.
I love capers.
But the tuna in the sauce was the right amount and could stand for it self against the veal.

We both ordered Pizza. Mine was Pizza Pugliese with tuna, onions, olives and capers. The other was Pizza Mista with two types of sausages, fresh mushrooms and bell peppers.
The crust was good, but both were a bit soggy in the middle.

A Dessert to finish the meal was ordered . We both had Panna cotta with Raspberry Sauce. It was nicely jiggly and tasted good.


Most people around us ate Pizza or Pasta. This is the go to menu that is safe for most.
