The appetizers, homemade or sailors, are always a guaranteed success. The secret? When you can ask to Antonella tells us: “a real chef doesn’t reveal his secrets”. But explains that the freshness and quality of raw materials, combined with a pinch of love and to taste of time, are the right ingredients to prepare all dishes, from appetizers to desserts, this is the perfect recipe of Fòllaro.
