Chef at home
We are proud to offer an excellent personal service. Our villa has its own private staff. This usually includes a chef who will make the shopping of food ordered and then come home to prepare and cook meals. People readily agree in defining the Tuscan cuisine as genuine, balanced, straightforward and healthy. After trying it, you will be acknowledged that the Tuscan cuisine is all of this and much more! Taking traditional local recipes such as: Chianina steak, panzanella, fettunta, pappa col pomodoro, pici with garlic, pecorino di Pienza, roast on the grill etc. you will realize how good it is, this due to our food which has been always closely tied to the land that generates its fantastic ingredients.
