Desine E Cene - CIVITELLA PAGANICO

Super not day, trattorie and ristoranti all full... This tiny 'rostucieria ' offers lovingly prepared primi piatti, rice salads, vegetarian and vegan lasagne and much more. Very limited places inside but tables under the ilex trees. Excellent price/qualoty and intimate service. Highly recommended I recommend the pasta dishes at around 8€ followed by the home-made sweet of the day!

If you're traveling down the highway on your way to a Tuscan vacation, find an excuse to pull off and go into Paganico for this place. When you walk in, there is a glass case full of the fresh food of the day. Locals are mostly coming in to get take out there are not many tables. However, you want to sit down, ask the owner to feed you, and get ready for some of the freshest, most delicious food imaginable. And when you think that there cannot possibly be anything better, she finishes you off with the lasagna homemade noodles, the works. It literally melts in your mouth. On an interesting sidenote, this place is also an amazing vegan restaurant. The mother cooks traditionally and the daughter cook vegan fare. Both are wonderful people and fantastic chefs.
