The Hand Go opened in 2015 as a grab and go space, to pick up and take away. In a city that is becoming more and more crowded and where people increasingly run from one place to another, this establishment fits into this daily rhythm. It is to enter, ask and leave. The worst that can happen is to have to stop and savour it. That and having to choose. There is a running counter in the shop, where the pizzas of the day are displayed, healthy and served by slice, but there are also healthier options, such as vegetarian crepes, sweets or savouries, fresh salads, with Cesar, Pesto and Vegan versions, pancakes, fruit salads and natural juices to accompany. Hand Go does not want you to lose sight of it, but it also does not want you to forget to eat.
