Owner Enzo Ragazzini and his son, Luca, have been advising us on their food and wine for many years (with impromptu Italian lessons thrown in). Years ago we had a large family gathering at La Maremma. My partner, Bob, however, was not with us because he was ill. As we were leaving, Luca brought me a bowl of pasta in brodo soup to take to him. His small act of kindness will never be forgotten.
Jane’s suggestions: the spinach with garlic and oil (spinach saltati) is the best; also try the chicken breast with balsamic vinegar (filettini di pollo all’aceto balsamico) and lamb (agnello) when they have it.
