Parece
al fresco (outdoors)
dining outside / in the open air
⚠️ La trampa
This is a classic! English says 'dining al fresco' to mean eating outside. But in Italian, 'al fresco' in colloquial use means 'in prison' or 'in the cool' (jail is cool). Italians say 'all'aperto' for outdoor dining. Saying 'mangiamo al fresco' to an Italian can raise eyebrows.
