la cucina di simonetta
My kitchen rigorously respects seasonality, I mainly use local products to create the traditional dishes that our mothers and grandmothers have given us. A walk in my herb garden, an old cookbook .. that’s how I get inspired to create a new dish.
The extra virgin olive oil produced from my olive grove is the irreplaceable protagonist of my kitchen, which offers dishes with very rich vegetables.
Here at Casa Bellavista I love spending hours in the kitchen preparing fresh handmade bread and pasta, as well as cakes and baked goods for breakfast.
