Apart from it’s lovely setting, Borgo is planted with rosemary and lavender and has the sweetest smell amidst the lush forest.<\/p>\n
We drove to Perugia in\u00a0 Umbria, about an hour away for a stroll around (I didn’t remember it quite the way it was; in fairness, I hadn’t been there in about 20 years although I probably changed more than it did.)<\/p>\n
We happened upon a resto off the main square in a quiet\u00a0alcove, La Rosetta, Piazza Italia, 19, \u00a0www.perugiaonline.com\/larosetta<\/a>, and with mostly Italian families, had a terrific lunch. (Not to be confused with the Roman fish restaurant, later in this blog.)<\/p>\n At Borgo, after another nap, we had dinner in the trattoria, run by three generations of a local family. Typical Italian fare, tagliatelle con sugo (wild boar, I think, which may be why we didn’t see that boar again) and roast lamb. Not a vegetable in sight unless you count potatoes.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
