  • This is Siena, an ancient Tuscan town which has become a UNESCO World Heritage site. It has a ton of amazing things to offer… One of which being DELICIOUS ITALIAN STREET FOOD!
    For breakfast, we went deep into Siena’s historical centre to Gino Cacino di Angelo for their famous paninis. We ordered their eggplant specialty panino, and their porchetta panino. It was a perfect breakfast! You can also order amazing charcuterie boards and a wide variety of Italian wines. After a little sightseeing around the medieval squares, we stopped at a local caffe for a double espresso (doppio espresso). For lunch, we went to a super local “hole-in-the-wall” restaurant called Osteria Il Grattacielo dal 1840. For lunch here, there is no menu and you order either the “cold” lunch (Tuscan cured meats & cheeses) or the “hot” lunch (pasta). We both opted for the hot lunch, and had two different kinds of tagliatelle - one with pesto and the other with pomodoro and cheese. We washed it all down with the house wine, which was the best wine we had in all of Italy. For dessert we tried a unique treat called Cantucci e Vin Santo. The cantucci is essentially biscotti and Vin Santo is a strong, sweet wine. They pair by dipping the cantucci into the vin santo, which was surprisingly good!
    Since it was our last day in Italy, we popped into a traditional wine shop called Cantina in Piazza and picked out several bottles of Tuscany and Italian wines to bring home. After a short break, we drove outside the city of Siena to the countryside of Tuscany. There, we went to a restaurant that specializes in Bistecca alla Fiorentina. This massive chunk of steak is seared on high heat briefly and is served shortly after almost raw. You can choose different types of beef, whether you prefer bone in/out and how many KGs you would like. We also ordered their risotto, since we didn’t have the chance to try it in Milan.
    Addresses:
    Gino Cacino di Angelo
    Piazza del Campo
    Torrefazione Fiorella
    Duomo di Siena
    Osteria Il Grattacielo dal 1840
    Cantina in Piazza
    Il Grillo Moro

    It's in the nature of Italians to live life with a positive tone and to celebrate the invitations that come along in life. Italian food is so conducive to all of that. Love from Korea 🇰🇷💕

    Visited Tuscany in Dec 2019…… made me really appreciate the fresh simple flavours and texture of pasta

  • @Jademoon25
    @Jademoon25 Před 2 lety +5

    I come from an Italian/Italian-American family. Those simple pasta dishes, we have eaten on a weekly basis since my childhood. I love watching the Italy videos because I see all the things my family eats (especially Rome, Tuscany, and Sicily). I didn't realize how much is very specific to Italian culture. When I share food and recipes with friends, they are perplexed (but also in love) which should have given me a realization that the food is not normal for what people are used to here in America, especially in Florida where I live.

    Those simple pasta dishes from the osteria looked delicious. I learned in Italy that a small dish of pasta without tons of sauce all over it is more than sufficient to satisfy. I love it. Side note: An osteria is akin to the English 'tavern' with a little more emphasis on drinking than eating, but it totally depends on the particular establishment. In the early 70's I would go to a local osteria where they would serve a bottle of wine, a plate with a few cheeses, a few slices of salami, some fresh garlic cloves and a chunk of bread. I loved it.

We met a young man who was celebrating his birthday so we bought him a glass, toasted him and enjoyed his company for an hour or so! Thanks, again! Love your channel. Heading to Florence tomorrow and will get to your recommended restaurant that opens at 11! Can hardly wait to try the pasta and amazing beef dish! 😍

    Glad you liked "vinsanto". This is a "vino passito" that means: wine made with "dried" grape. When the grape dries, loses water and so the concentration of sugar increases, therefore when the wine is made with this grape the alcool rate increases to at least 15/16% and it is also very sweet. Let's say that it is between a regular wine and a liquor, so it's best to be tasted as a dessert with cantucci, for example. The "vino passito" is common also in other Italian regions.

    Italy is a wonderland for everything...sea, mountains, arts, everything.
    But the food is something impossible to show. You must taste.
    From the north to the sicily you can have an amazing trip about taste, really different from region to region.
    And the different types of wine...love it!!
    I'm italian (but my father came from France) and i love cooking too.
    You have to try Umbria. Simply delicious

    I want to visit Siena NOWWWWW! I feel like their foods have their own unique style and taste (I mean obvi) but it's just so much more apparent in this video. As a foreigner, I don't see these nuances of different Italian cuisines but something about these foods in Siena made me 'connect' with their cuisine. Not sure if I'm connecting for the right reasons but I get a sense of Rustic, Raw (not literally lol), Unapologetic, Simple, Delicious, Unpretentious... love these qualities in foods and cultures.

    You were a bit unlucky about the whether, glad you enjoyed my hometown though! Hopefully you'll come visit again! Il Grattacielo is one of our "vinai" (now "osteria"), most of us locals have had launch or dinner there - or even better, a "champion breakfast"! :D Vinsanto and "cantucci" (the typical biscuits you had) are a huge classic!

    Out of curiosity, when going from Rome to Sicily, did you consider going on the Night Train (which goes on a ferry from mainland Italy to Messina) instead of taking a plane? Because of its uniqueness, that would have been a good video to make for your second channel.

    Such a great video 👏🏻👏🏻 it's lovely to watch our city from the point of view of a couple of experienced world travellers.
    I would like to just point out a misconception that is very usual in this kinds of video.
    Mandolin music is only representative of certain zones of southern Italy, please if you are aiming to play some authentic italian music as background in your videos take this in mind: every region (or sometimes even city) has its typical music, just like food or culture.
    Just to put this into perspective, playing mandolin while displaying Siena is like playing Sweet Home Alabama in the background while showing the streets of Manhattan.
    I hope this will enrich your culture and better comprenshion of particularisms that make Italy the country it is.
