Experts' Choice Award Trattoria Le Zie - Cucina Casareccia
4 expert reviews
“Where better to eat cucina casareccia (home cooking) than a place that feels like a private home, with patterned cement floor tiles, paper-strewn desk and a welcoming hostess (Carmela Perrone)? Known locally as simply 'le Zie' (the aunt) it's here you'll taste true cucina povera, such as horse meat in salsa piccante (spicy sauce)”
– Lonely Planet
Concierge "Known to locals simply as Le Zie ("the aunts"), this family-run trattoria still feels like the private house it once was, and is a perfect place to immerse yourself in the cucina povera of the region"
Fodor's "Local families favor this tiny old-fashioned trattoria, where no-frills charm is matched by wholesome, unfussy food" Full review

Don't expect a menu; choose from the daily specials, which might include homemade whole-wheat pasta served with a delicate sauce of tomato and sharp, aged ricotta scante.
Frommer's "Mrs. Anna Carmela, claims that she serves cucina povera, which translates as "cooking of the poor"...at her rustic family trattoria, you are served some of the most authentic ingredients of the region" Full review

Only for aficionados do we suggest the filet of horse in a light spicy sauce.
