I cannot tell you how excited I am about these cooler, albeit still mild, fall temps currently prevailing in Central Arkansas. With that in mind last week, I made dinner reservations at Ciao Baci for my wife’s pre-birthday celebration. When I think about outdoor dining in Little Rock, Ciao Baci is typically top-of-mind.
