It is restaurants like this that I imagined I would be eating at when I initially decided to tour Italy after classis. It is in the middle of a tiny village in Tuscany, and offers classic Tuscan cooking. I decided to order the pasta with spicy tomato sauce. Turned out that I made a great choice.
This
tomato sauce was obviously made from fresh tomatoes, spiced up with chili
oil(assumption because I didn’t see in red pepper flakes), and rounded out with
fresh parsley and garlic. This was one of the best, if not the best, pasta dish
that I ate in Italy. I cannot quite describe how good it was. The spiciness,
the tomato flavor, and the herbs were all melded together with perfect harmony.
The side salad I ate was also incredible. The mixed greens and vegetables were
the freshest, must crisp vegetables that I have ever had in the salad. It
literally tasted like they pulled it out of the ground on the spot for each
order. The best way to dress it was simply with a little oil and vinegar to
display the freshness and natural taste of the ingredients. It wasn’t expensive at all, and as you can tell, I more than enjoyed it. In fact, I really wish
I had a bowl of that pasta in front of me right now.
