It's not really soup. It was a lot of mussels and clams in a sauce with some bread. It was really good and the mussels were meaty and tender. The bread is used to soak up the juices. For my main course I had the swordfish rolls which was thinly sliced swordfish rolled around some crab filling. They were wonderful. There was four of us and we all enjoyed our meals. The menu was in Italian and English which helped a lot.

The waiter forgot we ordered an appetizer and, instead of simply apologizing, very aggressively told us we never ordered it. The ravioli Norma 2.0 were 4 medium/small ravioli with mushy eggplants inside and not much flavor. Two of us ordered the tuna that was supposed to be just seared on the outside and instead was completely dry as if it had been prepared before and reheated (both of us felt sick during the night.For a toddler we ordered a portion of simple pasta with tomato sauce and we were charged 23 euros. So our advise is to just go up for the view and never have dinner there. It is a real pity that a 4-star hotel does not control service and food quality.
