"The drive from Parma to Chianti without using the A1 Motorway takes you through some fantastic and changing countryside. But eventually hunger and much more likely the need for a Loo will force you to make a stop. This place would not be in your top 50 from its exterior, and the two young men in tracksuits don't encourage a feeling of quality either... Like always, need exceeded doubt.... And Thank Goodness! A charming welcome, A lovely menu, Very decent house wine and the ability to cook ... Specifically, there is a butcher somewhere who has an excellent relationship with this restaurant. Don't be fooled by the Tracksuits, these lads know exactly what they are doing and understand the principles of being a good host and delivering quality products. Before we left we were shown what I would have to describe as a Porterhouse Killer. This was the biggest slab of T Bone I have ever seen No kidding, it must have been nearly 2 and a half inches thick... and apparently they have one customer who eats this... all of it... But probably not or many more years... Excellent for a lunch stop Nice Loo's A Warm Welcome Good Food... Nice One Lads!"
