ristorazione — Città di Castello · Umbria
In Canoscio, a hamlet of Città di Castello perched on the hills of the Alta Valle del Tevere (Upper Tiber Valley), a family-run restaurant keeps Umbrian cooking alive with the simplicity of those who have never stopped doing it for real.
Beneath the walls of the Basilica della Madonna del Transito di Canoscio, Dal Togo is a place you come upon, not one you search for: run today by Roberta with the same care that Franco and Carla brought to it before her. A family-run business, evident in the welcome before you even sit down.
The dining room opens onto the view of the Alta Valle del Tevere: the Umbrian hills unfold beyond the windows while you wait to be seated. It is the right setting for the fixed Sunday menu — everything included for thirty euros — or for the weekend à la carte, with classic Umbrian starters arriving before everything else.
The wood-fired oven is the heart of the kitchen: the mixed roast of chicken and lamb comes out still warm, with a crust that tastes of embers and time. The fettuccine are made in house, as tradition demands. Every dish carries the flavour of an Umbrian cuisine that has never looked for shortcuts.
