Where to go for an aperitif in Siena
Just across the street is what we call its ‘raw evolution’: Crudi e Bollicine. Not only delicious schiacciate and gargantuan taglieri, fondues and a few hot dishes, but above all a fabulous collection of sophisticated tartare, carpaccio and lots and lots of sparkling wines, also by the glass. You can choose from 10 types of meat to match with twenty combinations of condiments.
We think the location is gorgeous. Forgive our modesty! Being in a historic building in a medieval town, the interior is very elaborate, with halls and small rooms, the inner courtyard, the mezzanine, the loggia and the outdoor tables along the street for a total of about 100 seating places, making it the perfect place also for social events, informal ceremonies, parties and hangouts.
