In the middle, a huge country ham takes pride of place. We&#8217;re immediately immersed in a Tuscan atmosphere. The room is not very large and the decor is rather modern. We sit down and are served warm homemade bread with a small vial of olive oil. The menu is very tempting. The choice is difficult: Bruschetta, Penne, Mortadella, Cod roti. A lunchtime menu: starter and main course for 18 euros. A really competitive price. In the evening, there&#8217;s a set menu at 33 euros.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_90093\" style=\"width: 660px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/carte-sassotondo1.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-90093\" class=\"size-large wp-image-90093\" alt=\"The Sassotondo map\" src=\"https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/carte-sassotondo1-1024x682.jpg\" width=\"650\" height=\"432\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/carte-sassotondo1-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/carte-sassotondo1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/carte-sassotondo1-82x55.jpg 82w, https:\/\/www.luxsure.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/carte-sassotondo1-75x50.jpg 75w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-90093\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><strong>The Sassotondo map<\/strong><\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt;font-family: Georgia\">For starters, we choose mozzarella with arugula.
