Lovely birthday brunch for a friend at this low key spot in Shirlington. The pasta was delicious and we were treated to a lovely glass of wine. My friend enjoyed her cheesecake but my Circus Maximus dessert was just a little too much for me. Ice cream, brownie and meringue piled high was more than I could handle. The ambience was great as it wasn’t too crowded so we could speak at a moderate level. I’ll return to try more of the menu.
