About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, as a regular sat sipping coffee, Umberto leaned over and whispered, ‘Did you hear? Last night my office was visited by a mysterious client…’ The regular nodded, intrigued. “What did he want?” Umberto grinned mischievously. “He wanted me to draft a contract for his new business—delivering pizzas to ghosts.” They both burst out laughing, realizing it was just another day in the life of Umberto’s imagination.
2. One afternoon, while an elderly gentleman dozed off in his usual corner, Umberto cleared his throat dramatically. ‘Ladies and gentlemen,’ he announced, ‘I just won my hundredth case today!’ Suddenly, a delivery driver coughed from behind the counter. ‘Hey, Mr. Debeneditto, your lunch is here!’ Umberto smiled broadly, tapping his briefcase with satisfaction. ‘My hundred-and-first victory awaits, good sir.’
3. In the dimly lit hallway outside Umberto’s office one night, a small dog began barking furiously at empty air, its tail wagging wildly. Finally, an old man appeared from around the corner, scratching his head and muttering something about ‘another darn doggone ghost.’ He reached into his pocket and pulled out a treat, tossing it towards the excited canine. The dog caught it mid-air with a delighted yip, then promptly sat down next to him, clearly recognizing him as its owner—a regular who’d forgotten his keys again.
4. One day, after hours of waiting for his package, a delivery driver noticed something odd: every time he approached Umberto’s office, his dog started barking wildly, even though it never reacted to other buildings. Finally curious, the delivery guy peeked inside and saw Umberto’s dog happily chewing on a package that looked exactly like his own. Turns out, the canine was just protecting its new toy from strangers.
