An adjective before the noun says more. Two adjectives? Could you put and between them? Then use a comma.

Welcome to Polpetta's café. Come in and try our bread tasty with plenty of butter. The soup arrives in a hot heavy bowl, our busy cheerful waiters bring every table a cold, fizzy drink, and our little cakes sit by the window. Please wave to the cat fluffy on your way out.
One comma pair is already right. Check what sits in front of every noun, and what has slipped behind.

I painted the menu, Try our soup hot and our bread warm and sweet and fresh. In Italy the adjective walks behind, no?

Tell him what to move, and what the comma should replace.
