Cafe Citti, Kenwood

Locals talk about Cafe Citti so enthusiastically that you might think of it as a grandeur place, yet nothing is pretentious about this roadside Italian diner. The handwritten menu above the counter has so many choices that deciding is indeed time consuming. Dozens of dishes are on display under the glass counter showing the marvelous selections and attempting to make the decision process easier. Take your time. The staff is extremely patient and accommodating. Many people rave about the pasta, but the calamari steak will change your day in a big way and be a happy surprise. Are you not a fan of sitting in crowded cafes? Get your order to go, and head to one of the nearby wineries. - Hoiyin Ip
