Who wouldn't succumb to their desires when truffles are on special??!! Get them on risotto, pasta, pizza!
Arriving at this inn slash butcher shop turned restaurant where they pack them in in proper European form. Is there a small spot? Table for four!! Ha!
Today the special was TRUFFLE and its musky umami aroma fills the nose with great pleasure.
No wonder the pigs can smell these even when they're underground! So awesome!!
+++ I cannot help but order a plate of risotto covered in truffle (see the photo)
BUT ITS ABOUT THE PIZZA!!
This place (when it's not overflowing with truffle essence) is for PIZZA!
* On your way to your seat, you'll no doubt pass by the old-school furnace (forno) where all the magic happens.
* if you're lucky you can request a table right in front to watch these folks execute their art.
* take your pick from chorizo (pepperoni), ham, mushroom, tomato and much more.
FINISH WITH A CAFE GOURMAND
