Great restaurant.

Directions: If you stand in the main square, with the cathedral to your right, and the old town hall building to your left, walk straight ahead, then look to your left at the end. Address is also listed as Piazza IV Novembre 4-5 - both are the same.

Recommended in the Faith Willinger book.

The food was superb, plus the kitchen is glassed in, so if you're near the glass, you can watch them at work. They make a great appetizer, where they split the local bread (piadina) in half lenghtwise (it's the size of a medium piece of pita bread here), fill it with fresh mozzarella, a sauted onion mixture and arugula, then bake it in the oven - yummmmm!

Pretty Trattoria with great pasta.

This was a very pretty trattoria with soft yellow walls that made for a very warm atmosphere. It was frequented at lunchtime by many businessman who were obviously regulars. The food was very fresh using using local produce. We all had different varieties of their homemade pastas. As if that wasn't enough we also shared a wonderful plate of gnocchi!
