Re: Today in pictures
Back to Sunday and food and wine! Aperitif in a nice bar (Pic 2) after leaving theold village through one of it old arched gates and then the lovely Restaurant and typical local food we had in a nearby valley.
Menu: Local cured meats and home-made pickled veg with fritata and a basket of Torta Fritta (Pizza douch - roll thin and cut into squares then fry until golden and puffed up -very more-ish!)
Tortelli stuffed with Spinach and ricotta served with sage butter- mouth-watering.
Boned, stuffed guinea fowl
Home produced Gutturnio (red wine) from their own vinyards in the valley.
Recommended by a friend -I'd definitely go back to eat there again and it was a gorgoeus area. Rolling hills and sunflower fields but unfortunately mid-afternoon when we'd finished eating it was raining - just means I'll have to go back to take more photos of the countryside!
