"No lo conocía. De casualidad pasé cerca del mediodía y pedí café con leche y facturas. Me gustó. Al rato ví que todos pedían lo mismo alrededor mío, el plato del día, mondongo. Me tentó y pedí. Entré con mucho frió, día helado. Salí con el pecho caliente y feliz :-) El lugar es re futbolero y con onda de bar de hace 50 años. Si querés un Restó, café de especialidad, etc...no vayas. Este lugar es a la antigua y a mi me encanta. Volvería. Aunque no pude ver una foto de Viggo che! :-) Gracias gasómetro."
