Masseria Valle Delle Vie - AMOROSI

Travelling through the country side near where my dad was born I happened to stumble past an Agriturismo restaurant, all the rage now in Italy,it means that 60% of the food used by that restaurant must have been grown there by that restaurant so the owner waiter barman Cosimo explained to us. To start I ordered the traditional Antipasto plate, it had all home made salami's and cheeses lettuce etc all eaten with their own bread, it was more than ample, in fact we left a fair bit, thinking that it would fill us up, overall great taste. I then received my pasta dish, Cavatelli with wild boar, once again the serve looked gigantic however after tasting it I was glad it was as I ate it all and wished I had more, it was that good. I then got a plate a mixed grill of different types of meat including Pork,Veal,lamb and chicken,you could tell that they had been home grown the taste was just so different in a fantastic way to what I was used to. I can't tell you anything about the desserts, We where to full to order any even though Cosimo recommended the thousand layer cake with strawberry,s from the Forrest . I now regret I didn't have it. Overall the food was exceptional ,however it tasted even better after we got the bill which came to around 50 Euro which included the 2 euro litre of wine and free coffe and grappa . What a deal we would definitely return if we came in this region again. Ps. The place is run by members of the family and so gives out a fantastic atmosphere, we had a great time with Cosimo and his family .

Senza dubbio il miglior agriturismo del Taburno. Pulizia impeccabile, personale estremamente gentile e soprattutto piatti tipici curati nei minimi dettagli. Carne ottima. Tartufo buono. Antipasto spettacolare. Consigliatissimo.

Il ristorante si trova sul monte Taburno in una caratteristica casa di pietra, con posti interni ed esterni coperti da una tenda che si confonde tra gli alberi. La cucina è classica e basata sui piatti di terra, con diversi antipasti tra cui affettati, fagioli, peperoni ripieni, melanzane grigliate e zeppoline fritte. Abbiamo assaggiato tre primi piatti, tutti molto buoni, un misto di carni alla brace, dolce della casa e vino e acqua locali. Devo dire che tutto era buono e genuino, con dolci fatti in casa. Le porzioni non erano molto abbondanti ma si esce ben sazi, con un prezzo di circa 30 euro a testa. Forse il costo è un po' alto per un menu basato sulla cucina di terra e per un ristorante un po' fuori mano, ma il cibo è genuino e preparato con cura. Sicuramente da ritornarci.
