A taste of Valtellina: Pizzoccheri and Polenta taragna o concia. Mountain food not to be taken lightly.


Bresaola, the local cured specialty


We just got back from a week end in the mountains and after a fortnight of scortchingly hot weather it was a relief to have to wear fleeces and socks for two days and still be cold. It also required lots of hearty food and wine, so who's complaining?
The minute we approached C and R's, they started cooking up a feast and the marathon eating began. A real butter, pork and cheese fest, I'm telling you.
