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 often 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.
A Celebrity Taste of Italy

Within a few years it earned international reviews and was recognized among the best in the area for its charming ambiance, service and food.
