Enjoy the atmosphere and watch the world go by in many of the cafes especially the one near the main terrace. Enjoy sampling the food and drink in many of the restaurants or just window shop in the boutiques and make sure you visit the ceramic art gallery.

Lots of choices for dinner, coffee, gelato, wine. Three sqaures offer wonderful people watching and beautiful vistas. Its touristy but you can find quiet little place to enjoy the wonderful food.
