Formerly known as Meo Modo, the Michelin-starred restaurant at Borgo Santo Pietro incorporates fresh, organic produce with homemade pastas, local Chianina beef dishes and mouthwatering desserts. The restaurant is now headed by chef Ariel Hagen, who completed his residency at St. Hubertus under Norbert Niederkofler, and worked under Gaetano Trovato at Arnolfo. Dinner is especially atmospheric, served either on the loggia, providing views of the valley through ivy-covered columns, or in the intimate dining room, whose hand-painted walls, silk-brocade curtains and flickering candelabra (the Borgo goes through 30,000 candles a season) inspire love sonnets. There’s also an impressive wine list. And if the cuisine invites overindulgence, a walk along the fragrant lanes of the extensive gardens provides just the remedy.
