An authentic culinary experience in Suvereto
Welcome to my column “Around the village”, where I take you to discover the hidden treasures of our wonderful territory. Today I present to you a special place that embodies the tradition and authenticity of Tuscan cuisine: the family restaurant Il Caminetto, located in the historic center of Suvereto.
A bit of history
Il Caminetto is a family-run restaurant that has been delighting the palates of its guests for more than forty years with typical traditional Tuscan dishes.
The location, purchased by a young dreamer in 1982 to build a private home, was destined for a different project because the atmosphere that could be felt in the square deserved to be shared with a cosmopolitan group and so a simple and welcoming environment was created with a pizza and a few traditional dishes.
Fabrizio, Ilaria, Antonietta and Francesco are the owners of the restaurant that we now consider family. Just think that we spent the winter always having lunch here every time we came to Suvereto to carry out the renovation work on the new house, the Terrazza sul Borgo.
By now I know the menu by heart and this makes me feel at home. Every dish is a certainty. What I always recommend to my guests is to taste Francesco’s homemade pasta or tortelli. They can be seasoned with mushrooms, butter or wild boar sauce. At Caminetto it is also possible to eat pizza and the menu is simple and also suitable for children who will always find numerous alternatives here. My children, even though they are still young, now often come to eat alone in the restaurant, they know the menu by heart and feel like they are at home. Their favorite dishes? Pici with ragù, pasta carbonara, Medieval pizza. Yes, because pizza is also made here in the evening and it is also possible to order it to take away (perhaps to eat it in the garden of the Casa nel Castello!).
Homemade desserts, such as tiramisu, conclude the meal in style. Everything is accompanied by a selection of local wines. Discover the restaurant menu by clicking here.
