We are in Perugia, a city immersed in art, architecture, painting, music and the cuisine is no less! As if to demonstrate that those who experience and see beauty can only create it in turn, Umbrian cuisine is manifested in excellent dishes such as that of the Antica trattoria San Lorenzo. In the magical atmosphere of the historic center where the restaurant was born. The San Lorenzo is an intimate and elegant place located near the Cathedral of San Lorenzo in Perugia and the Fontana Maggiore, it can be the basis for a visit to the historic center of this city: Palazzo dei Priori, the National Gallery, the Etruscan Arch, and more beautiful monuments, are in the nearest surroundings. Surrounded by ancient walls and vaulted ceilings, the restaurant offers a creative cuisine of research, original and personal, drawing on the dishes of the typical Umbrian cuisine and the Italian gastronomic tradition. Wise care is put into the equipment, enhancing local craftsmanship in this case as well. For L'oste e Cuoco Ciccotti, the restaurant is like a theatre, every day we enter the scene. The dishes, the wines, the environment, the music, the atmosphere that you breathe ... everything must be aimed at giving emotions. They are the actors… the people who help us in this adventure who, together with us, have learned to love this job… Every gesture in our restaurant is a sign of great passion; from the cook to the sommelier, from the room assistant, to the farmer, to the lady who takes care of the cleaning. Everyone knows that only the sum of their efforts will give those joys to our guests that will reward them for the kilometers travelled. In the kitchen of the Michelin-starred Chef Simone Ciccotti, the new and the old, tradition and creativity come together in a timeless classicism drawing on the regional gastronomic culture and the Mediterranean culture. Wise care is put into the equipment, also enhancing local craftsmanship in this case. The humblest combinations, ennobled and reinvented by the Stellato chef and his staff, make Ciccotti's art unique. Don't ask for trivial menus, leave room for particular dishes, let them experiment and taste, trust their working skills and you will appreciate the beautiful and the good, as in music and art in general. However, the attentions of the Maitre and Sommelier are reserved, who will suggest wines from small cellars and producers, the result of rigorous and passionate choices.
