Tucked just inside the historic walls of tranquil Magliano in Toscana, Aurora is one of the best restaurants in the Maremma. The refined cuisine is refreshingly untraditional – try the burrata cream with anchovies, mullet eggs and breadcrumbs if it's on the menu. In summer, tables in the pretty rear garden are popular so it's advisable to book ahead.
