The most famous macelleria (butcher's shop) in town, run by the same family since 1925, is where most local restaurants buy their outstandingly excellent meat. Forge your way past the counter into the back of the ceramic-tiled shop to feast on feisty dishes of the day made from local Chianina beef and cinta senese (indigenous Tuscan pork from Siena).
Try to sample local Slow Food favourite mallegato (blood sausage) and arrive on the dot to snag the best table in the house – on a bijou covered terrace with a panoramic valley view.
