Il Visibìlio

One MICHELIN star · Blind tasting menu

1 MICHELIN Star

At the end of a dirt road near Pievasciata, the village of contemporary art in the hills above Siena, Il Visibìlio is the MICHELIN-starred restaurant of The Club House. There is no à la carte and no printed menu in advance: a single blind tasting menu moves between land and sea, makes generous use of vegetables and plays on contrasts of flavour and temperature. The inspectors remember the pigeon with rhubarb and absinthe sauces.

The kitchen is led by Francesco Ferrettini, executive chef of the Fontanelle Estate restaurants, with Giuseppe Iannotti of the two-starred Krèsios in Campania as consultant. Pastry is a strong suit. Dinner only, Tuesday to Saturday, from spring to late autumn; it is a meal for an unhurried evening, and the kind of table people choose for an anniversary.

One MICHELIN star · On the piazza of a medieval castle

1 MICHELIN Star

Contrada sits on the little piazza at the heart of Castel Monastero, the medieval castle hamlet near Monastero d’Ombrone. Chef Davide Canella holds a MICHELIN star for refined, elegant cooking with a seasonal menu built on the surrounding land. There is a tasting menu and an à la carte, both leaning towards meat with some well-chosen fish; the inspectors mention prawns with panzanella and duck breast with hosomaki.

L’Asinello

One MICHELIN star · In a former stable

1 MICHELIN Star

Villa a Sesta is a small hamlet south of Castelnuovo Berardenga, and L’Asinello has been here since 2011, in a carefully converted old stable. It is run by two people: Senio Venturi in the kitchen and Elisa in the dining room. Senio’s cooking starts from the Tuscan tradition and local farmers, then goes its own way with bold flavours and a contemporary touch; it holds a MICHELIN star.
