Flavours of Italy 2010

Well, it didn't take much to tempt us back. We've just returned from another food filled trip. This time, higher in the stunning mountains and chestnut forests, not far from Pieve Fosciana and pretty Sillico. The views were amazing, the sun shone and the food, rustic, simply served allowing the delicious, local flavours to speak for themselves:

Amazing figs and ham

Baked cheese with generous gratings of truffle

Sillico perched on the hill
