Read moreWir waren heute Abend zu dritt hier zu Essen.
Die Reservierung per Whatsapp wurde sehr schnell bestätigt.
Als Vorspeise hatten wir verschiedene frittierte Gemüse und drei Sorten Käse. Dazu gab es drei verschieden Soßen, die alle sehr lecker waren. Auch ein Schälchen mit Reis, Mayonnaise und Pesto wurde gereicht, was ebenso lecker war.
Als Hauptspeise hatte ich einen Kaninchenrollbraten mit Schmorzwiebeln und Kartoffel - seehr lecker!
Meine Frau hatte die Tortelli mit Pestofüllung und Ragout, was ebenfalls sehr lecker war.
Unsere zehnjährige Tochter hatte das frittierte Hähnchen und laut ihr war es in den zehn Tagen hier das beste Restaurant, wo wir bisher waren. Sie hat es als IHR Lieblingsrestaurant in der Toskana auserkoren.
Mehr muss man dazu nicht sagen ... Stasera siamo venuti a cena qui in tre.
La prenotazione tramite Whatsapp è stata confermata molto rapidamente.
Come antipasto abbiamo preso diverse verdure fritte e tre tipi di formaggio. Il tutto accompagnato da tre salse diverse, tutte molto gustose. È stata servita anche una ciotolina con riso, maionese e pesto, anch'essa molto buona.
Come piatto principale ho preso un rotolo di coniglio con cipolle stufate e patate: davvero squisito!
Mia moglie ha preso i tortelli ripieni di pesto con ragù, anch'essi molto buoni.
Nostra figlia di dieci anni ha mangiato il pollo fritto e secondo lei è stato il miglior ristorante in cui siamo stati nei dieci giorni trascorsi qui. Lo ha eletto il SUO ristorante preferito in Toscana.
