As I live in an old dildo factory just around the corner from them... I was very upset to see that Splendido has had to close due to flood damage.

I believe that a burst water main was to blame.

Such a pity just before the Film Festival.

I hope that Carlo and David get things cleared up so they can open soon... although the damage looked pretty damn extensive.

Anyone else have any news on what happened?

Seriously.

I signed the lease and then discovered that the small old factory building I rented the apartment in used to be a Chinese "mom-and-pop" plastics moulding facility specialising in "adult novelties".

I kid you not.

Nuts! Wish I had called them to check on progress of repairs. Had reservations at Splendido on the 8th, our first day at the film festival, and they called to cancel, saying they'd had a flood and would be closed for the week. Splendido was going to be a highlight of our dining choices. :sad:
