The Chef spoke only a little English but his love of food and cooking came through loud and clear. We made wonderful homemade pasta, with a sausage sauce and a terrific carrot cake. The staff were fun and the made this experience a highlight of our Italian vacation. We will definitely return to Italy but in the mean time we will make our new recipes at home

The name over the door is Cantinetta dell 'Olmo and it is located on the main street. We were greeted by “The Baron” (reallly) who is the proprietor and he took good care of us. He is very proud of his own wines and informed us that under the floor there were 30,000 bottles of his wine ready for distribution. In addition to the expected bread and local cured meats, he served a unique selection of vegetarian appetizers that were very good. We saw others eating pasta that also looked yummy. I recommend you give this a try when in Offida – you won’t be disappointed.

As always, our meal at Ophis was fabulous. One member of our party stated that her pasta was the best she had ever had. We will be back to try their new menu. read more As always, our meal at Ophis was fabulous. One member of our party stated that her pasta was the best she had ever had.
