Very old earth, live from the pre-Roman italic populations of the Volsci and of the Ernici.

Pastoral earth for antonomasia. Dressed in coats in sheep skin and shod of the "ciocie" (the footwears with the bands),of Ciociaria bagpipers is still today a symbol of the Noel, in memory of those shepherds that, for first, they saw the child.

Framed among the Lepini mountain to south and the Ernici mountain to north, green and rich of waters even thermal, as that of Fiuggi or of the Pompeo thermal bathses, the Ciociaria becomes lowland following the course of the sack river, in which flow the many tributaries that come down from the mountain near.

Frosinone and the barycentre. to north are feel more "Roman", in the south the heart beats for the Campania . Lightened mens from god founded you admirable abbeys: Casamari, Cassino, Trisulti, islands of faith and culture. Today, even in Ciociaria of the splendid millennial suburbs castled on the high grounds suffers the assault of the industrialist civilization of the sulcate lowland from the sun, but preserves foreshortening of Arcadia impermeable to the model of standardized life.

It is a region to two faces: future desire and the regret of the pass. and this tendencies are think over even in its world of the taste: conservative in the simple and pastoral kitchen, innovating in the taste search more modern and of dishes, as they say, "revisited".

Here is slanted for the first, with the strong taut pastas by hand, the juices with the first actor peperoncino, the garlic sauce vegetables, the meats to knife, lamb grills or castrated with wild grasses, the zuppa simmers for hours to the fireplace, the mushroom in crock, the chicken with the peppers, the biscuit to the anise or to the red wine. A world that can find again. Unchangeable in the time.
