With creations straight from his mother's recipe box, Stefano Roman and partner Marco Schiavoni have created an authentic Italian cafe in North Lakeview. Serving sandwiches, pastas, salads and succulent desserts, this storefront haven focuses on Venetian-style pizza: thin and flaky. Try the traditional potato rosemary pizza or pasta options --and be sure to save room for tiramisu.
