A wide selection of fare for any time of day, be it snacks, lunch or dinner are offered, such as Porchetta (roast ham) sandwiches prepared with Tuscan bread (baked in wood fired oven), local salami and raw ham and farm produced cheeses. Pasta dishes and soups are also offered and are of the highest quality and in the finest Tuscan culinary traditions.
