Delicato

Stone walls and a terrace at the foot of a medieval church set the scene at this country restaurant in a hilltop village on the Lazio-Umbria border. The cooking leans into local ingredients without fussing over them, which turns out to be harder than it sounds. Small-producer Lazio wines round out a meal that reads like the region explaining itself quietly. The kind of place you find by accident and then tell everyone about.
