Except that LaFonda is old Lafayette.. People from the surrounding areas and people that are new to Lafayette have to get drunk there a couple of times to appreciate it.

Also, the fact that the menu is Italian specific, limits the diner.. But I'll be there this weekend and I'm looking forward to it. I'm anxious to see what they've done with the place, even though my family's picture isn't on the wall in the dining room anymore.

Sounds like a couple of rounds of Everclear Margaritas will do that trick. Not sure if that counts as an Apertif or Digestif?

The better dishes at Ruffino's aren't Italian, FWIW.

That was a cool picture! I would stare at it and imagine each person's story.
