Trattoria Le Cernacchie

At “Trattoria le Cernacchie” you can taste many ancient specialities, such as “Carabaccia”, a traditional onion soup with toasted almonds, red wine vinegar, cinnamon and burnt flour, or &lduqo;Cibreo”, pan–fried crests, beans and chichken livers with lemon and sage, or also “Wild boar in Dolce Forte” prepared with bitter dark chocolate, raisin, candied fruit, pine nuts, vinegar and red wine of Chianti, and other dishes of the best family tradition of Tuscany. Some examples are: “Pappa al Pomodoro”, “mice of potatoes”, “Ciccina Bona”, “Fried Chops”, put in a sauce, and the inevitable “Bistecca alla Fiorentina”.

The wine list is based on the great Tuscan red wines, from “Chianti Classico” to Super Tuscany.

Cucina Zibibbo

Benedetta Vitali is a well known name to Tuscan, Italian and international gourmets. I have been a customer of ZIBIBBO since it was created, in 1999.

12 years have passed and, with them, even my role, so from a customer I became a patron and together with Benedetta now I manage the ZIBIBBO kitchen. Of Benedetta, I always enjoyed her infinite culture of Italian cuisine, her great opening for any type of contamination and her great respect for the raw materials and the seasonality.



We cooks are the creators of dishes that give a brief and fleeting pleasure. A moment, and everything disappears. But if we are able to make a mark, to create a memory that is worth to be preserved, we have honored our profession.

In this new menu you will find the dishes that have always characterized my kitchen and others recently conceived. Along with me, among the pots, the young YU, Japanese cook who decided to stay with us at ZIBIBBO stimulating research with his specificity. Yu loves Italian food and now interpretates it with skill, I am certain that his dishes will impress you.

Here, kitchen and dining are working together, sharing a basic idea: kitchen is not combination of flavors and substances, kitchen is a lot more. That is why we like to call ZIBIBBO a kitchen, instead of a normal restaurant.

Targa Bistrot

At lunch, the restaurant offers the opportunity to relax, to enjoy the proper distraction from a hectic working day, to get away from the “chaos” of tourism. At dinner, however, the wind changes: regular customers and tourists from all backgrounds, without distinction, let themselves be caressed by a breeze of international sophistication with solid Tuscan roots.



Gabriele, as Executive Chef, transmits to the kitchen staff its line thought in harmony with the seasons, the raw materials and cooking ways, and perceives them, assimilates them and uses them to give vent to his creativity. Therefore, for example, with a spoonful of passion, a bit of salt and a pinch of irony, a simple dish of Spaghetti with tomato sauce is the king!



Techniques of preparation of the great French school and small insights of Italian regional simplicity come together and give life to a “lively” menu that changes every season to meet the most diverse needs and devotes equal importance both to the products of the soil than to those of the sea.



Finally, pastry. TARGA reserves a prominent place to its desserts, all of own inspiration and making. Because dessert is not just a course among others: to it the task of ending in style bringing together the best of all sensations, scents, flavors so far accumulated. Therefore, encouraging the curiosity of connoisseurs and hedonists, the dessert list is another source of great attraction, complemented by a selection of sipping wines in glass and coffee in the various infusions. Definitely worth trying, the now famous &lduqo;hot chocolate souffle” or “crepes with lemon”, the cornerstones of the dessert list!
