Summer Food: Lucchessia - Mescita Lotti
Restaurant. Mescita Lotti restaurant better known, just as Tambellini, has to
be one of my favorite restaurants. I
love to eat in the small garden on blue butcher’s paper where the regional cuisine
is given a modern touch and looks so pretty on the plates. The owner, Emanuela Tambellini says,
“Simple things are the most refined.” and how right she is.
Above. A
welcome dish from the cook, a delicious Scarpaccia Viareggina, which is a typical
cake from Viareggio, it is “sweet and
sour”, and made with zucchini it was the
perfect appetizer.
Mescita Lotti is on the road to Sant'Alessio, near
Lucca (+39 0583 342077).
