The good, the bad and the wireless: Aperitivo
I’ve been making the rounds with my laptop in search of spots that offer decent food, drink, and online access. This is part seven of my winter wireless wrap-up. (Previously: Nearby the Tree, The Bookworm, Sequoia, The Rickshaw; Le Petit Gourmand; The Stone Boat)
Aperitivo
The good
- The coffee is fine
- The mini pizza works as a snack
- The bathrooms are OK
- This is a decent spot to do some late afternoon Web surfing and then enjoy a post-work glass of wine with friends
The bad
- The decor is better suited for night than day, as it feels a bit dark
- The service is up and down, ranging from efficient to neglectful, though it tends toward the former. One one visit, I was the sole patron but, despite employees going past my table, no one asked if I wanted a drink. One employee turned on a Chinese soap opera and, when I noted the volume was loud, grudgingly… switched the channel to horse racing.
The signal
- On my four visits, no problem with the signal

I find the decor annoying at night as well, though I’m not exactly sure why. It’s too bright.
