The Brick chicken (main course) was to die for. We definitely recommend this restaurant when visiting Prato, Italy. We chose Prosecco (white wine) and finished off diner with a wonderful cappuccino.

Part of the building dates to the 15th century, when it was a convent - something that make just the passing by an incredible moment; The food lives up to the building's colorful history. Do not miss the sedano ripieno alla pratese (stuffed celery), in which celery is pressed, stuffed with a minced veal and mortadella filling, coated in flour and egg, and fried in olive oil. A tasty ragù crowns the dish. Another house specialty is the filetto al pepe verde (beef filet in a creamy green peppercorn sauce). The wine list boasts local favorites. This is a one of the few non-tourist spots around. That makes this experience a "must go".

They were telling me about how good their dinner experience was the night before and by sheer coincidence Daniel the owner they met the night before is catering the wedding reception. The food prepared at the weeding was of stunning quality and presentation. I have been blessed to eat at amazing locations over the years but what Daniel pulled off for a group of 120 people was nothing short of magic. From the initial appetizers which consisted of some of the best salumi's and cheeses I have had, through the 3 course sit down dinner where he somehow managed a small army of staff to perfectly cook and present rissoto, pasta and steak courses, and finally through what will have to go down as the largest and tastiest tart (served as the wedding cake) that I will ever experience. If all that isn't enough Daniel speaks fluent English (his mom hails from Brooklyn) and is world traveled. He was a generous and enthusiastic host. Based on what I saw him pull off for a group of 120 I think you would be crazy not to visit his day job if you are anywhere near Prato.
