They are not constructive criticism, the reviewers use offensive words criticizing me personally with the aim of damaging the good name of the Osteria. I will take care of it. I would like to point out that the cost of the dinner did not amount to 40 euros but rather 35, and the money was paid by the organizers at the end of the dinner, not before. The evening ended at 2.30 in the morning, and between the various bingo and award ceremonies you didn't seem to be suffering. The courses, abundant in both quantity and portions, included nine starters, two first courses (risotto and lasagnette), two second courses (bourguignonne with polenta and red wine cup with side dish) and two tastings of desserts. I strongly advised the organizers against bringing so many people into the restaurant, as the Osteria is small and not equipped to accommodate a large number of people, but they insisted. The Osteria has been open and well established for 35 years and does not need any "help", as you wrote. The staff has always been kind and patient towards you, trying to satisfy every request. I consider myself lucky and I am happy with my job which I love and do with passion, even though it also includes dealing with people who don't understand it. I conclude by wishing you to find some serenity in these Christmas holidays. Thank you! CesiraMore
