Osteria da Chichibio — Restaurant in Certaldo

Words can not express how amazing the food is here. We stumbled upon this place by coincedence due to another place being full and boy, what a national Italian treasure is this!

You taste the soul of the food, the ingrediënts and the love with which it is made. This small restaurant with only one chef delivered food straight out of the heavens.

Everyone that wants to taste pure, italian food cooked by Alessandro and his team should go here. The wine is good, the food amazing and the people running it very, very lovely.

We hope to come...
