Mixed Boiled Meats and Beef Cut
Tuscan and particularly Lucca cuisine are characterized by simple, authentic dishes made with strictly local, genuine products.
This is the case with farro soup and numerous other soups and minestrone featured on the menu of our restaurant in Massarosa.
Olive oil, olives, porcini mushrooms, and other delights find their place alongside excellent meat dishes.
The true excellence in Tuscany when it comes to meat is undoubtedly the Florentine steak, grilled to perfection and best enjoyed hot. A tender meaty heart is enveloped by a lightly toasted crust, providing a new burst of flavor with each bite.
All meats on the menu come from certified and guaranteed local farms, ensuring that only the best products from our land are brought to the table.
The beef cut or the historic recipe of brick-grilled rooster are just two of the main courses that are truly worth trying at our restaurant in the province of Lucca.
