While I am a fan of slow food, there's a misconception about what their
guide means. A restaurant has to apply and be checked. To get into Slow
Food means only that you make the food from scratch, not using pre-prepared
things, and not that it is particularly good. For years we had only one
Slow Food resto here and believe me it wasn't special! Then a couple of
others were encouraged to apply. Others didn't because they didn't want to
give up their broth cubes!
