ANTICA PIZZELLERIA 1973

We arrive but the man who is supposed to take orders stops to talk to two customers for a long time about the history of the place, so after 10 minutes I go to the cashier and ask if someone else can come and take the order. I order a gluten-free Sicilian, thinking that a pizza with anchovies would arrive (I didn't read the menu because in all of Italy the Sicilian has anchovies) instead I get a white pizza with a pistachio pesto, therefore sweet, the mortadella, therefore sweet, which I don't know what it has to do with Sicily, and the burrata, therefore sweet and also has nothing to do with Sicily. My mistake, I didn't read the menu but they didn't even dream of asking if I wanted to change it. The whole thing, if you can make this combination worse, was raw. The pizza underneath, in the center smelled of raw dough. A great shame, I used to go to this pizzeria, and I was happy until last year, for the "gluten-free" but I will have to change destinations. Not recommended!!!!
