At the Locanda del Glicine the old tradition
of local cooking meets a brand new way of concerving the table
itself, from the presentation of dishes to the refined assembling
of tastes and perfumes, the whole of it is managed down to
the smallest detail by the young and talented pupil of Giancarlo
Morelli, that is to say our Chef Daniele Zanzucchi, together
with our maremman cook Gioconda who keeps the tradition of
a savoury and homely cooking alive.
The menu suggests only fresh and genuine products as vegetables
and fruit from the gardens of the Pieve Vecchia, the local
cold-cuts, Gioconda's home-made fresh pasta, bread and "focaccia"
which are daily cooked in the owen by our chef, the tasty oil
from the Pieve Vecchia olive trees, the Pecorino cheese from
Pienza, the traditional home-made cakes and the innovative
ones as well.
The typical tastes are made valuable by their own quality,
together with a particular care for the calories: the menu
is liberally studied in order to calibrate the presence of
fats and cholesterol, so to fully appreciate the true maremman
taste of each course.
