The table that smells of Tuscan soil

And for pasta, you can choose between Pici all'aglione, those thick hand-rolled spaghetti with a simple, powerful garlic sauce, or Piciarelli al pesto di basilico e pomodorini, fresh and fragrant. These are the kind of dishes that never disappoint, the foundation of good country cooking.

It's closer to a country house than to an establishment trying to impress. The atmosphere is calm, restful, as you'd expect from an organic agriturismo with only a few rooms. It's an immersion, not just a meal.
