AI summary of what 6 dish mentions say about the food

Reviewers rave about the Frittatina di pasta, a crispy, creamy standout. The overall vibe is warm, rustic comfort with bold, satisfying flavors.

This frittatina weighs a lot — I'd pay €4 for it because it feels heavy. It has a beautiful batter. Inside: ragù bianco, peas, bechamel, and provola — look at how it stretches. Technically it's very well made, with a good batter and creamy inside, but unfortunately it's bland. In Naples, the classic frittatina doesn't have ragù bianco; I remember peas, bechamel, and either pancetta or cooked ham. I would replace this ragù bianco with sausage at least, because it lacks savouriness. For the rest, technically it's very well done, but I wouldn't order it again.

    QUESTO DELIVERY MI HA FATTO ARRABBIARE! · @ 1:51

    Skipped

    Farina Pick Your Kind has good bread and some technically well-made fried items, but the sandwiches are poorly balanced, overpriced, and one arrived with sour ingredients — a disappointing delivery experience overall.

    Dishes mentioned

    • Crocchetta di Patate Vegetariana

      This croquette costs €4, which I think is a lot for a potato croquette, but let's see if it's good. The breading is very classic — egg and breadcrumbs. Inside it's full of potatoes, and you really taste the provola, which is a good smoked provola. Actually, it seems fresh, not dry like scamorza. I would have put a lot more provola inside, because I'm paying €4 for a potato-based fried snack, but the flavour is very good. At a restaurant, fried food often costs less. It could be more seasoned, but it's good.

    • Supplì
    • Frittatina di Pasta napoletane

    • Pagnottello Pulled Pork
    • Pagnottello Octopus

      This is the octopus sandwich. The bread is always very good. Inside: roasted octopus, potato cream, fried eggplant, and smoked burratina from Puglia. The flavours are much more distinct here — you taste the octopus strongly, and a slight aftertaste of the smoked burrata. The eggplant is more of a texture, and with the potato cream you get a creamy roughness. But again, you mostly taste the octopus and a bit of burrata aftertaste. I would have reinforced it with octopus cooking water reduced into a mayonnaise, and I'd remove the eggplant. It's not a bad sandwich, but it's quite anonymous. For €13.50, I'd expect something more memorable. They lack a sauce that enhances everything.
