Osteria La Chiacchera

  • May 17, 2002

The name of this osteria literally means "chatterbox." It is in a small space with basic tables and décor. The main reason to come here is the good food (my friend who brought me there told me the food is often called peasants’ food because of the simple ingredients used.) We tried the pici (hand-rolled pasta strands typical of the region) with tomota and mushroom sauce and the penne arrabbiata, which means angry. It is actually in a spicy tomato sauce, full of "fire." Secondo dishes include sausage and beans and boiled meat and potatoes with tomato sauce.

This is an excellent place to have a traditional Sienese meal at very low prices. They don’t charge cover or service , the norm at most restaurants. This translates into a savings of at least a few euro’s per person.
