AI summary of what 6 dish mentions say about the food
Reviewers rave about the "Illegal" burger, calling it a messy, smoky masterpiece. The overall vibe is unapologetically bold, with big, indulgent flavors that feel like a guilty pleasure.
“This is the puccia they make themselves, with capocollo, pulled pork, pork belly cooked on the barbecue and caramelised, cheddar, crispy bacon and BBQ sauce. The puccia is soft underneath and crunchy on top. The only flaw I find is I'd have put a bit more sauce because it stays a bit dry. But man, this sandwich is a hit. The meat is beautifully browned. The caramelised thing is incredible. The bacon makes the difference. It's a really good sandwich, I can't find any faults. Madonna, super.”

Per Gem
This one has sausage from Norcia, pork belly cooked on the barbecue and caramelised, broccoli and cheddar. This is even better, I tell you right away. The broccoli is sautéed underneath. The sausage is like a buster. The caramelised pork belly again. Madonna, this is a hit. This one is even better. The broccoli pushes a lot, you can really taste it. The sausage almost hides a bit, but it doesn't matter, it's delicious. These sandwiches are illegal.
Led Zeppelin
This one is always the artisan puccia, but with beef. Pulled beef, peppers, onion, stout beer, Worcestershire sauce, crispy bacon and BBQ sauce. It looks good. It's good too. But I think the pork and that caramelised belly play in a different league. The beef pushes less than the pork. The bacon isn't crispy with all the sauces and vegetables, it softens a bit in the sandwich. But it's still a good sandwich.
Rock Burger
This is the classic one: artisan puccia, 140g beef hamburger, egg, crispy bacon, cheddar, lettuce, fresh tomato and burger sauce. This is a classic hamburger from the 90s. The tomato slice is not cooked or boiled. I don't love tomato. It looks like a nice hamburger. It doesn't seem cooked rare. I think there's some flavouring inside that gives it this reddish colour. The egg is noticeable. It's very old school. Delicious.
Nuggets
These are nuggets from a bag, I think. They're irregular. It's a nugget, there's no marinade in the chicken, no particularity in the frying. Maybe the breading is seasoned, peppered, something. It's a nugget. It does its job because you come here to stuff yourself with sandwiches, you have the fried thing and dip it in sauce. The frying is quite dry, so it's basic.
