Opera's Italian Canteen

, , , ...

Opera canteen in Italy is somehow special.
There is an (almost 24 hours) gunned guard in front of the kitchen door. It does not allow you to enter without a special permission especially outside the so called lunch time.
The lunch timetable is pretty late compared to Opera's headquaters. Lunch is not served before 14:30.
You have to sit at the table, sometimes serving yourself and the others. Even preparing the table.
There is no wide choice. What the cook decide is the only thing you can get.
But usually food is pretty good.
You start with some nice freshly cooked pasta and then you can have meat (or cheese+some kind of ham) with side dish.
You are not allowed to go away from the table without prior consent from the gunned guard and for sure not before tasting some fruit.

There is lack of options, of flexibility and lunch is really too late.
I'm going to protest with Opera's headquaters! :|
That needs to be changed

Ah I've forgotten to mention: canteen is located in my parents flat, the gunned man is my dad who is not really gunned but he's pretty serious about my access to the fridge. The cook is my mum...
After all I'm just staying working few days from here so I guess I should not complain too mutch with Opera's headquaters :wink:
