A GRAND OPENING!!!
Yes, after months of planning, renovations and preparations, La Locanda del Borgo, a new restaurant in Rotecastello, had it's grand opening on Thursday! As I wrote previously, this restaurant represents the dream of our friends Josepina, and her daughter Lucia, along with Josepina's sister Mariella, and her mother, whose name I dare not try to spell!

The restaurant has two rooms inside, each small and intimate, as well as an outdoor terrace with beautiful views of the countryside in one direction and the medieval city (and tower) in the other.


On Thursday night everyone who was anyone showed up for the fun, the food and the entertainment.





The food just kept coming and coming, but the crowd was so overwhelming that we only got to sample a few dishes, but I'm sure over the next few weeks we'll be sampling everything on the menu. Speaking of menus, no, I haven't seen one yet, but as soon as I do Ill write about what's cooking, and as soon as we eat there we'll do a full report. The website for La Locanda del Borgo isn't finished yet, but as soon as it is I'll post a link, along with the phone number to make reservations.
