Poormanger 2

Cozy place, varied menu that can also satisfy vegetarians, vegans and gluten intolerants. Attentive and quick service. However, there was a lot of confusion in the room which was noisy. Prices in line with similar restaurants in the area!

I had lunch at Poormanger 2 because it was selected as a typical restaurant with gluten-free dishes. Well, not really a "restaurant", "typical" can be accepted, "with gluten-free products" seems obvious to me given that they mainly prepare...potatoes. Upon our arrival we were greeted immediately and shown to the table (they don't accept reservations, it's best to go early because there is a queue already around 12.30pm). At that point I discovered that we mainly ate potatoes: a menu made up of various appetizers, drinks and the main course: very large potatoes cooked in such a way as to make them crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside, to which various ingredients are added to have the various tastes. We chose two starters (veal with tuna sauce and the Piedmontese starter), one potato with onion and cod and one with speck and leek. The thing I liked least was the Piedmontese starter because it was too "stupid" and had very, very salty anchovies. The potatoes, however, are excellent: the idea is simple but winning, that is, crispy but soft potatoes with a large dose of seasoning. Really good. We confirm that the menu is gluten-free (with the exception of 2-3 dishes), the service is really quick (too much). The layout of the tables needs to be reviewed a bit because, in practice, you find yourself eating with unknown people on tables separated by 10 centimeters of space. High prices if you stop to think that you have eaten potatoes, good if you compare the seasoned potato to a classic first course from other places.
