COMO Castello del Nero - Tavarnelle Val di Pesa

Informationen zum Speiseangebot

Restaurant:

Michelin-starred La Torre is in the former stables, but no trace of the original residents remains in the elegantly muted dining room, decorated with terracotta-tiled floors, arched ceilings and polished slate tables. As you’d expect, the menu is a love letter to Tuscany; executive chef Giovanni Luca Di Pirro uses the finest ingredients sourced from local farmers or directly from the estate's organic garden. The dishes are seasonally inspired, with crispy greens and fragrant herbs in spring and rich truffles and wild boar in autumn. In summer, diners can eat al fresco on the terrace, overlooking the rolling hills and spectacular sunsets of Chianti. La Taverna is the less formal family-friendly restaurant in the castle’s original 12th-century kitchen, serving simple but flavourful Italian fare, pizzas topped with local ingredients, as well as inventive cocktails. In the summer, head to the Pavilion for all-day Mediterranean dining served alfresco amidst vineyards and olive groves. 

Top Table:

Out on the Garden Terrace in summer; cosy by the fire, come winter.

Last Orders:

Pile your plate with cold cuts, pastries or fruit between 7.30am and 10.30am; enjoy a lazy lunch at La Taverna from 12pm; sit down for dinner between 7.30pm and 10pm. Service in the bar slows around 12.30am.

Room Service:

Disrobed and disinclined to be in public? Order snacks and light bites around the clock from the in-room 24-hour service menu.

Hotel Bar:

In the former castle kitchens, the bar is an atmospheric space, all exposed red brick, flagstone floors and arched ceilings: sip a local wine with a plate of cured meat and cheeses and you’ll feel like landed Tuscan gentry. The 12th-century wine cellars are a romantic setting for fine wine and olive oil tastings for up to eight guests. Choose from Champagne, reserve cognacs, grappas and whiskies, or have the hotel's expert mixologists whip up one of their enticing signature cocktails.
