Dear Robert: : ) The good news: I just found Patricia Wells' list of her top 10 *casual* restaurants around the world! : ( The bad news: "Cluck You Chicken" in Tucson didn't make this list, either.... Again, Letterman-style, here it is: 10. Le Cameleon, Paris 9. Viridiana, Madrid 8. Cib, Florence 7. Checchino dal 1887, Rome 6. The Seafood Restaurant, Cornwall, England 5. Ca l'Isidre, Barcelona 4. City Chiu Chow Restaurant, Hong Kong 3. Frontera Grill, Chicago 2. La Tupina, Bordeaux ...and Patricia Wells' pick for the number one casual restaurant in the world: 1. Al Forno, Providence, Rhode Island (where melt-in-your-mouth grilled pizza worth a trip to Providence was created by chefs and co-owners George Germon and Johanne Killeen!)
