The food at the Locanda dell’Amorosa can be as simple as a plate of fresh raw porcini mushrooms sliced paper thin and marinated in local oil and garden herbs, or rabbit simmered slowly in wine with the subtle taste of wild fennel seeds. In season there is the elegance of grilled quail and pheasant from the Sienese hills, or more traditional and substantial recipes like these two, excellent for cold days in late autumn when the first frost is on the ground.
