Casa Calzone

Strolling down Grande Allée is a must for anybody visiting Quebec City, and even for residents.  This is precisely what we were doing last Sunday when we decided it was time to get something to eat.  The area is full of restaurants ranging from expensive four stars to popular fast-food places.   We stopped to look at the menu posted in front of an Italian place that I had never noticed before. As we were doing so, a man on his way out, kindly came over to us and offered information about the menu.  He probably was a member of the staff or the family running the establishment, we’ll never know.  But we followed his advise and were so pleased to have done so.   The place is called Casa Calzone: a small but charming place.   I love Italian food but it seems that everything tatted better in the cosy, simple atmosphere so much like a real Italian Trattoria.  It looked like most of the people there were part of the family.It has an interesting menu, very Italian of course – I had the Pizza Calzone - a god variety of wines and beers and most important of all, the prices are reasonable.
