All seasoned by the antipathy and ill-education of the owner who instead of apologising for the wait has hurt us words. To avoid absolutely.

Instead it was opened its “Rosticceria and Pizzeria” in the city center and, with a pre-reserved reservation, that day a table was all for us. The simple and cosy room, the gentle little and genuine, put us immediately at ease: the beautiful however would have arrived at the first courses. Opted to leave the menu to their imagination, here come to our eyes, sperlunghe of cheeses, eggplants, meats, focacce, tomatoes and I don't remember what if not that the procession lasted almost an hour. Two abundant first dishes: homemade tagliatelle with porcini mushrooms, followed by gnocchetti in a heavenly sauce, both wet by mouthfuls of red wine of the house, fresh and descending like water to warm the hearts. When we were commensali we already mouthed not for the heat (perfect air conditioning), but for the symptoms of a pleasant satiety, here is that Claudio presents himself with gloves filled with smokers grilled consisting of slices of tender vitella, abbey, sausages, spits twisted by straw tomatoes and salad. Not to mention that served separately and baked potatoes tender and tasty. When we surrendered almost without fighting, it was the turn of sparkling wine, toast and coffee, followed by digestives. Over four hours in that room, surrounded by sincere friendliness, but above all by a genuine food that comes from their farms. And the promise that very early, even in San Donato, will be operational. Thanks Claudio, Consilia, Eleonora: your warmth has transformed a birthday, into an “Event”.
