Bar Cento. 1948 West 25th St., Cleveland; 216-274-1010 or barcento.com. 4:30 p.m.-2:30 a.m. daily.Within a decor that is a comfortable mix of neo-Tuscan country and rehabbed Cleveland, there is a relatively short but sweet menu of affordable, affable and imaginative food. A most important item on a bar menu is pizza. The thin, crisp-chewy crust hosts toppings as simple as garlic, olive oil and sea salt or, best of all, a bright and beautiful pie with extra-small eggs nestled in pancetta, doused in black pepper and cooked right on the pizza in the kitchen’s brick oven. $$-$$$, major credit cards accepted. (BS) <br><br><strong>John Petkovic’s After Dark Review: <strong>Out late with a grumblin’ tummy and no way to shut it up?, This joint not only serves good, cheap pizza until 2 a.m. — seven nights a week — it also boasts 100 wines. That’s enough to make Bar Cento appetizing. But this place is also a comfy bar with a turntable that plays vinyl. And not just any ol’ vinyl — classic ol’ vinyl, like slabs by Bad Company or Mott the Hoople. Mmm, my lips, tummy and ears are happy. Is there anything more appetizing than sipping an earthy wine, nibbling on a Margherita pizza and hearing Ian Hunter sing “Rock ‘n’ Roll Queen”aEU,
