The old traditional look of the shop, the traditional way the chicken were being roasted simply attracted us to do quick stopover for it. We just couldn't resist it. The shop gave me a very local feel. Sadly, I did not manage to get the name of the shop to share.

We do not speak Italian, and the guy in the shop do not speak English. All we could do was to point and choose what we wanted. Language barrier.

I guessed we were early for lunch. I noticed lunch time in Italy is around 1pm, but we were there at 11am. There were a few Italians coming in to grab some chicken to go though. The display below reminds me of 菜饭摊 (mixed vegetable stall) in Singapore. I saw that the guys were still preparing more food in the kitchen for lunch crowd later.
We picked a breaded eggplant to go with our roasted chicken. There were so many other dishes that we wanted to get, but we stopped ourselves.

This is definitely a good change from the usual pasta and pizza that we were having. However, the chicken tasted just alright, was not as good as it smelt. Still, it was worth the stopover.
