Welcome to Polpetta's café. Today we have fresh roll's, hot soup and cold juice's, all made this morning. We are open Sunday's now, all year round. The chef's are in from six, so the bread is ready by eight. Come in, sit down and stay as long as you like.
One apostrophe belongs exactly where it is. Careful!
