• Modica farm dinner

    27 de maio de 2023, Itália ⋅ 🌙 20 °C

    In the evening we went to the local Agriturismo which was about a five minute walk from here. We tried to book for 7 pm but Diego our host said not to go before 7:30 pm. It was all set up - one room for a baptism another one for Alice’s first Communion ❤️ but they said by the time we finished the event would only just be starting at about 9 pm which is exactly what happened. Honestly it was just like having dinner at mum’s place. There was a mountain of delicious antipasta including local cheeses, breads sun-dried tomatoes and a heated up local ricotta. Then we only ordered two serves of pasta to share one ravioli one cover telly followed by two serves of oven baked pork meat as mmain course with salad. Oh delicious including the cute little lemon cream dolci. We were an entertainment item and obviously everyone had relatives they wanted us to say hello to in Melbourne and Sydney. It was certainly a jovial evening and the total cost was €30 per couple!!! I forgot to mention the home-made wine was pretty good too. Before dinner Diego had taken us for a very long tour around this manner property it’s extremely old with both Roman and Byzantine walls in places. His family seems to have owned it from the 1800s and it does need a lot of money spent on but it is a very interesting place indeed to see and stay at.Leia mais
