More information on Luna Caprese

Luna Caprese is a gem on the elegant North Parade. It's not much to look at on the outside—but once through the door, you are transported to an Italian fishing village where gentlemanly mafiosi wait on tables. The only downside is that the decor is slightly tacky, with grotesque angling gear stuck to the walls. That said, however, the atmosphere is second to none, the service is extremely helpful, and the choice of either open tables or closed booths is a nice touch. The food here is a real treat: the pâté starter is enough to ruin your appetite alone, but save space for the meat courses that come dripping with the most delightful sauces. The vegetable side dishes are done to a turn, and the portions are generous.

Traveler Photos of Oxford

Love that ochre shade Somewhere in Oxford. Liverpool, this church was bombed in WW2. St. Helen's Passage, where we walked through during the Ghost Tour (which was fascinating and very well guided I might add) where a lot of bloodshed occurred and where apparently there are lots of reports of a feeling of unease or anxiousness, and the smell of horses still residing from that day!
