"Vicoforte is an incredibly beautiful location surrounded by sylvan hills with wintry mountains in the distance. There is a Napoleonic route to follow and the Sanctuary an architectural feat and feast, It is known for having the largest elliptical cupola in the world, celebrating who else but the Virgin plus being the burial site for several royals. Dining options on foot are limited and can be busy saturday or closed sunday. Parlapa is one of the few places. It's not trying to be fancy. It serves pizza at 6-8 Euros and a few pasta dishes. For the price, the food is decent, the service good and its popularity with locals evident. Wine list is retail prices and a fair selection for a modest place, seeking good value and representative wines of the region, wider italy plus a few international wines. It's not destination dining but good enough."
