The manager of the Antica Fattoria is Flavio Biserni,chef with international experience, who decided to open the restaurant in March 2002. Flavio is a caring and attentive innkeeper both with the guests who sit at his table and in the choice of raw materials that enter the kitchen.
The products used are closely linked to the territory and linkedto seasonality: asparagus is harvested in spring, during the summer the vegetable garden of the Antica Fattoria offers delicious vegetables and aromatic herbs while in autumn it is Monte Amiata that is generous with a laute production of porcini mushrooms. It is impossible not to mention meat and dairy products from local ethical farms as well.
