Polpetta is makeing soup for the lunch rush, and he is hoping the pot will not boil over again. Marco is stiring it slowly while Nonna is cuting thick slices of bread. The queue outside is the longest it has been all week, and everyone agrees this is the busyest morning the café has known. Rosa has been enjoing the noise from the radio.
