My husband and I biked up to Montefalco and we were rewarded with the most wonderful lunch at this true jewel. L’Alchimista was recommended to us by a local and we were so thankful for this.
It is located on the main square with a beautiful outside dining area. However, it was a bit cool so we ate inside this beautiful restaurant. We were greeted by Camilla and she is a great server.
We then were able to meet Patricia, the owner and chef. She is one talented artist and creator of dishes.
We started with her red onion soup with an egg. It was divine. We also had their fantastic salad. For our entree, it was her version of Carbonara which is a masterpiece.
Their wine list is extensive and we found out why. They ship wine all over the world.
We met with Barbara, Patricia’s daughter - a beautiful and knowledgeable wine expert. She gave us a wine tasting of Sagrantino, which is what we wanted. We then ordered 1/2 case of different bottles to be shipped to us in the US, when we return home. We know have their information so we can order more when we return home.
We want to thank you ladies for one of the best experiences we had in our time in magnificent Italy.
