My Dolce Vita

A restaurant situated in the historic center of the city, a sophisticated and charming place that immediately brings you back in time.
Behind an iron gate, in an old courtyard in a perfect shabby style, surrounded by pink flowers here and there, a glass greenhouse and many tables in the garden for outdoor dining, lit by many other candles.
A lovely place, my favorite, where you can breathe a refined and romantic atmosphere, but relaxed at the same time.
Soft pink thoughts are released in the air, dancing with the aroma of coffee. That of the soft cappuccino accompanied by delicious fruit pastries. Because life sometimes needs only sweetness. That sweetness that you can find only in Paris.
I could almost be able to hear Parisian artists whistling the melodic Vie en Rose, releasing, for each brush stroke on the canvas, a wave of pink flowers. I imagine my sweet life like this, with a dress that looks like something out of the brush of a painter, made even more romantic by a big white hat, ready to fly away, like the notes of a song, at the first gust of wind . Light, like a long dreamily sigh.

Come una Ninfa

An enchanted garden and a palette of blue, green, light blue and pink create a dreamy atmosphere suspended between surrealism and abstraction, as in a gallery of paintings between the Enlightenment and Fauvism. In the air the smell of the pond filled with water lilies, wild flowers, freshly cut grass... here is where the nymphs hide, between flowers and leaves. They have a fresh face blossoming between their long dark hair, a rosebud for a mouth, the magic in the eyes and that dreamy air, sometimes misleading, that so crazy Gods. They are sylvan creatures with romantic dresses that seem to grow like ivy on their bodies and floral crowns, to emphasize that these creatures are part of the flora. But like all modern nymphs, they move like graceful ballerinas, from their heels, to the tune of their melodic voices, including branches of flowers and branches of plantains in their fairy gardens, in a sharp contrast with the lightness of a beauty that lasts a moment, like a falling leaf on the water.

Spring time

"A day without laughter is a day wasted" so said Sir Charlie Chaplin.

Give me some tulips and I will be the happiest and smiling person in the world, I might add.

Did you know that tulips represent true love and for a declaration of love should give a bouquet of red tulips (perhaps with a Luca Barra jewel).

Although many are convinced that the flower that symbolizes love is the rose that is not entirely true: the true symbol of perfect love, honest one, eternal, selfless, and I would add also rare, is the tulip, at least according to what that the ancient legends and popular literature passed us.

The name "tulip" comes from turkish "tullband" headdress, turban, probably because of the characteristic of this lovely flower.

According to an ancient Persian legend, the oldest of those who see the tulip as the protagonist, this was born from the drops of blood of a young boy who committed suicide following a terrible disappointment in love. Even in the famous collection of fairy tales "The Arabian Nights" the tulip is associated with love: in fact, according to the accounts, the sultan dropped a red tulip at the foot of one of the women of the harem to show them what was the chosen .

It was later in the sixteenth century that this beautiful flower gained great popularity in Turkey, during the reign of Suleiman the Magnificent Ottoman sultanate, from whose court were brought first to Vienna, then in Holland and England, and finally in the arms of your princess for cheer and perfuming her spring days, dreaming about a #fugaromantica in Amalfi Coast.
