Bar Bruno

Via Cristoforo Colombo, 84017 Positano SA, Italia

Next time you find yourself in Positano — and especially if you are on foot and lost in the maze of narrow streets and alleys near lunchtime — do what I did: ask a cabbie where to eat.  He will tell you Ristorante Bruno.  Keep climbing until you reach Via Cristoforo Colombo, look down toward the water (as you see the photo above), and sit down at a streetside table with this view, for an excellent “il pranzo“.

I started with Calamaretti with tomato sauce, followed by Linguine alla Vongole — vino rosso for the first, vino bianco with the second, and un caffe to top it off.

Gaze above the restaurant, and feast your senses on the colors and shapes of flowers, grillwork and stucco in the scene below; Ristorante Bruno rocks!

Later that evening, as you recollect adventures of the day, the scene will replay in sepia:

Sweet dreams…
