Lonely Planet review

Carved out of an exquisite 12th-century building, this is an enticing option for a few glasses of red over an enormous tagliere (platter) of cold meats and cheese. Franco, the owner, painstakingly unveiled the centuries-old timber ceiling of what had long been a butcher's. At the back is the bifora , a Gothic window (now walled in) that is unusual for being at ground level. Franco's rules: no coffee and no pictures on the brick walls.
