Sure now you understand with my hubby, even I love to dine in differnt restaurants. A new restaurant on the block is La Cana, an Italian retaurant. I love the ambience there. Once you enter you feel some comfort. The restuarant is decorated with summer colors, pink, green giving a very soothing effect with plants all around and also beautiful curtains. It gives a very homely feeling. The food is little expensive as per quantity served but surely the quality of the food is good. The food is delicious, I like the garlic bacon pizza, creame spagetti, rose chicken spagetti, also the chilly spagetti. The place is calm and silent so its good for chatting with friends. The location of the reataurant is just above GS mart in Okpo. Its worth trying once.
