Excellent restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating and inventive cooking.

Directions: Near the intersection of Via Monteoliveto and Calata Trinita Maggiore

I thoroughly enjoyed a slow Saturday lunch at Il Garum. I selected the restaurant based on the menu posted outside, which listed several vegetarian options.

For a first course, I had a timbale of eggplant and tomato, which was juicy and flavorful. Secondo was a smoked cheese and grilled vegetable dish that I wish I had photographed, it was so artfully presented.

Although I had ordered only a glass of wine, the waiter refilled my glass during the meal and did not charge me.

Overall, this was one of those meals where you find yourself smiling, but don't even realize that you're doing it until you notice the reactions from others nearby.
