Food Scene

I suggest this typical Tuscan restaurant located on the hills of the beautiful Borgho of Artimino.La wonderful views of the surrounding countryside, the good food accompanied by a fine wine, are the setting for a pleasant dinner or an outdoor lunch. This historic house is still the ancient Tuscan recipes, ripettando the tradition and authenticity of the products. It is worth visiting to capture the essence of Tuscan cooking. http://www.dadelfina.it/dove.htm

I visited this recently renovated The Abbey, is part of the Romanesque churches of Montealbano. The building "cross plan", narrow aisle, half-columns and arches, a transept with a crypt, accessible only from the outside, covered by vaults supported by low pillars, and three apses with a conical roof, typical of the thirteenth century, and double row of mullioned windows. very interesting its architectural uniqueness, you can see Romanesque influences, and medieval. The stones and the architectural techniques vary according to the use of reconstruction of the various periods. its first building dates between the eleventh and twelfth centuries, has been restored in the second half of the twelfth century. the bell tower, perhaps dating back to 1200 and modified in the nineteenth century.
