"Ci sono stato in occasione della registrazione di una puntata della trasmissione televisiva “U braseri “ andata poi in onda su Telemia. Tutto caserecciamente buono così come ottima è stata l’accoglienza del personale tutto capitanato dalla bravissima donna Franzisca che è un personaggio reale e non solo nome per indicare il locale. Non ci sono più tornato ma me ne rammarico tantissimo e spero di tornarci presto."
