Osteria Ficcanaso
Marcello and Lorenzo, the two brothers at the helm of Osteria, have created a project that combines tradition and innovation, thanks to the international experiences that have enriched their cultural and professional backgrounds. Ten years apart, Marcello and Lorenzo have been able to merge their skills and passions in a restaurant that focuses everything on the quality of fresh, genuine and local ingredients. Their cuisine offers dishes that recall the tradition of the area, but with a modern twist that surprises and conquers the most demanding palates.
Osteria Ficcanaso was recently honored by the Gambero Rosso guide for the second year in a row, which described the cuisine as "generous and of substance." Among the most popular dishes, the pappardelle with rabbit stew is a tribute to local flavors, while the Ficcanaso's suckling pig with apples, anise and wine sauce stands out for its perfect texture, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The guide also praised the desserts, particularly the "Terra Mia," a fun mini-flower vase with chocolate and orange ganache that combines tradition and originality. The wine list is equally original, with a careful selection that winks at local wineries. At dinner, the Osteria also offers pizza, a simple option but prepared with the same attention to detail that characterizes every dish on the menu.

Some curiosities
Chef Marcello Fella is the beating heart of the kitchen at Osteria Ficcanaso. With a passion for local raw materials, he studies each ingredient carefully to bring the authenticity of local flavors to his dishes, enriched by the modern techniques he learned during his experiences abroad. Marcello has worked in renowned restaurants in Norway and London, where he perfected his mastery of low-temperature cooking, a technique that has revolutionized the preparation of many of his dishes. Despite his international influences, Marcello has never lost sight of the roots of his cooking, passed down from his grandparents. From an early age, he was fascinated by his grandmothers' recipes and tried to "steal" the secrets of their traditional preparations.
His restaurant's philosophy is clear: innovate without losing sight of the authentic recipes of the past. Each dish reflects this vision, combining local ingredients of the highest quality with modern techniques, without ever distorting the essence of traditional flavors. Marcello brings to the table not only the flavors of the land, but also a history, that of his family and his origins, which shines through in every bite. His approach to cooking is a true search for the perfect balance between past and present, creating a unique gastronomic experience for anyone who visits Osteria Ficcanaso.
With his commitment to quality and his passion for innovation, Marcello continues to earn accolades and appreciation, making Osteria Ficcanaso a must-visit destination for those who visit San Donato Val di Comino and wish to discover true local cuisine, revisited with creativity and passion.
