“Basil was awesome. He told us that he treated guests like he would treat his friends visiting the city and that’s exactly how we felt. Basil is kind, warm and made us feel like we were friends for years. He even offered me his coat when I said I was cold. We ended the day by going for the best meal that included meat, meat and more meat and included bread, bread and more bread, delicious. We were not allowed to go for the famous dessert across the street until we finished the full meal, which we didn’t 😜. We did still have dessert though.
