IL MECENATE -- LUCCA, ITALY -- PART 4




LOCALLY SOURCED, DIVINELY PREPARED CUISINE
IN THE FINEST LUCCHESE TRADITION
For secondi pasti, we selected perfectly al dente spaghetti with garlic, olive oil and more fresh prawns.

The simplicity of the dish allowed the quality of the ingredients to shine through.

We sampled more wine along with oven cooked fish and roasted, lightly seasoned potatoes.

More simple, yet spectacular dishes.
 
It’s hard to argue with chocolate as a conclusion to a great meal.

We would enjoy it in two ways: straightforward and unforgettable.

The former consisted of a luscious, moist cake.

The latter -- according to our host -- a much-treasured heirloom recipe passed down through generations.
