"Even in emergency you can do quality things destined to last". The earthquake, which has brought down central Italy, has caused 299 deaths, 31.764 people evacuated, and the total distruction of Amatrice's old town. The reconstruction process starts from a public area of aggregation, surrounded by nine restaurants which do not exist anymore and have made Amatrice famous in the world.
